[QUOTE="DDD, post: 186787, member: 35"] I may be the only one who thinks this is worth considering...but I sincerely do think so. Ever since WWII (and maybe before) 18 year olds have been drinking. College kids drink. Young soldiers drink. The 18 year olds hang out with kids two or three years older once they are out of high school. Just like cigarette smoking...some will and some won't. If you live in a college town the police ignore the drinking age so long as the behavior isn't too far out. on the other hand if you live in a town where law enforcement officers are seeking something to do, you can end up with a record in a New York minute. Every person who is DUI deserves to pay the consequences. Alcoholics, like my much loved easy child/difficult child, can't be allowed to endanger others. Some state's used to allow 18 year olds to drink beer with a lowered percent of alcohol. There could be a compromise from the study. by the way around here (even in the big cities) 18 year old girls are allowed into clubs but 18 year old boys aren't. HUH?? Interesting. DDD [/QUOTE]
