Think about it.
I think there should not even be a drinking age. Around Europe, people at any age can purchase alcohol with premission and can go into bars and clubs. This is good, and I will tell you why. If people at a younger age start drinking around the parents a little, it means that when they turn 18, they wont have a massive booze nighte every night.
In the UK, I think part of the crime is becaus eof people waiting until they are 18 to enter clubs, as soon as they turn 18, everything goes mad, fights, violence ect....
But in Europe, you never hear of these things because when people turn 18 its not such a bug event, they have had a drink before, so they cant go off the rails all in one go.
An example is where i come from in Sicily, you can enter a nightclub at any age, the thing is, the people under 18 and over 18 do not abuse the power to drink, they stay out of trouble because they have drank alcohol before and can control themselves.
Here, when people 18, it all comes straighta t once, and because they havnt been to a nightclub before, they make the most of it, sometimes too much of it.
So my overall opinion is that putting an age limit on these things, amkes violence worse.
Not sure if I have made sense here, but I get what i mean in my head.
