here its 18, whioch i think is a good age overall, maximum blood alcohol limit when driving is .05, if you are caught over .08 then you loose your license immeadiately for 6 months..

dont know about other countires.. but here in NI its legal for anyone of any age to have a drink, aslong as its not in public, and supervised..

im 15, i have a few drinks sometimes and im resonsible only pain is the fact it will be just over 2 years before i can actually buy it

thats what i'm talkin about.. in canada it's 18.. they have far less drinking problems (like death from drunk driving etc) then the US but they also have very strict drinking - driving laws. They watch for it all the time.

Here you can fight it pretty easy and get away with it 50% of the time.. and if you don't the penelty is like being sent to your room..

16-18, i believe if a person can prove they're responsable enough then they should be given the privledge / chance. The second it is abused or misused then that chance / privledge should be revoked,

Hard to monitor, but if we had some more responsible and involved parents these days it would work.

Plain

I've seen what alcohol has done for my son so I think it should be very strictly controlled and only sold from government owned outlets but as with every thing else there would be an illegal supply readily available I have no doubt.

Regards

there are far too many people aged 18 that aren't responsible enough to handle drink properly. my cousin was like a child at 18, used to get drunk regularly and it had a knock on effect on his family life.
