I guess that all depends on what clubs your hanging out in.
My girlfriend doesn't like hanging out in clubs...so we don't go. I'm not big on drinking at all...so it doesn't matter much. I do miss karaoke sometimes, but oh well.
We allow 18 year olds to vote in this country. The brain at that age is apparently developed enough to make a decision concerning our nation's future.
We allow 18 year olds to join the armed services, go anywhere in the world and shoot to kill the enemy. The brain at that age is apparently developed enough to protect our country.
So someone can stand next to me in line at the polling place and can answer my country's call but they can't have a shot and a beer? Eighteen gets my vote.
There is a monthly party. As long as the kids can raise the money for the booze, the mother will host the party in her basement and will buy the booze. Party invitation costs $5, and money is raised.
Unless the US plans to raise the age to 65, to ban the parents from buying them, then we will still have a problem.
I drank a lot more before my 18th birthday. And had a little bit a wine with my meal since early teen. Well Ok i am French, I don't have to explain why. Drinking in moderation should have a set age. drinking to get drunk, shouldn't be lower then 16 at least.

Look, I fully agree with you. I don't drink. Never have. Never will.
However, when it comes to the law.. A cop can't just enter a house on the word that he believes there is drinking downstairs. :/
The post was about...responsibility. Women are less likely to get intoxicated than men...for some reason.
Actually women have caught up in this area. This ain't the 1950s! You must not go to bars/clubs where young people go.
