Do you think it is okay for children to drink alcohol under their parents' permission.Debate. :beerchug: I will get into it later on.
 
Of course, if they drink in moderation and their parents are responsible about it.
 
If they're responsible I guess. But I personally think fast food is bad enough.
 
That's different. Alcohol has no adverse side affects if it's used appropriately and responsibly, fast food is always bad for you.
 
It's stupid. The whole point of being a teen and drinking is sneaking to get some and trying to hide the fact that you are drunk.
 
I felt that yours was stupid, because the point of drinking is not sneaking it and trying not to get caught.
 
You are, but it was immature and not really what we were discussing. If you just like to do things because you're not allowed to and the thrill of trying not to get caught is fun for you, then you can apply that logic to anything and it really isn't relevant here. You might as well just smoke crack, I'm sure your parents wouldn't appreciate that either.
 
How was it immature? I was stating a fact that has happened to almost every teen unless your parents actully buy you booze which is stupid..and I'm sure it applies since it's about drinking?Wow, you have a comment for everything tho and I have respect for Tony so I'm not gonna say anything else other then your egos way to high.
 
It's stupid because you said the point of drinking was to try not to get caught, not to actually drink alcohol.Yes, "my egos way to high."
 
lmao...keep going you too...love the fights over the internet...anyways...everyone at my school drinks and they never get caught, tho i dont think their parents know? haha...i guess its alrite...as long as ya dont get caught...haha
 
That's the thing though, parents make it seem like such a bad thing so obviously their children will rebel and want to do it. If you educate your kids on it then it's not such a big deal, Universe pretty much proved my point with his first statement.
 
Drinking is the high school experienceDrinking is a personal choice. Some do it for rebelion, some have an addiction, some get pressured to drink, and some for social. But as for the topic, is it ok for people to drink underage? Yes

Underage drinking is dangerous. Not only are you phyiscally not able to handle it (especially large amounts) but you are mentally not capable of making rational thoughts without the booze, let alone with it.If a teenager drinks he is very likely to over do it or get in his car. Both are very dangerous.

Look at all the grandparents and parents, they drank when they were younger, for a majority of people it's a fun little phase and nothing more.

Congrats? You put people's lives at risk by drinking and driving. You take the inexperience of teen drivers, the cockiness and then add booze to that and you are sure going to make one hell of a mixture.Kids should not drink and they should not smoke (but smoking is nasty no matter how old). I don't care if I sound like your mother or not, teenagers should not drink because they are more likely to drink and drive. Just because you weren't caught doesn't mean you didn't do it and you didn't risk your life and other people's lives. I drive on the same road as these people, buddy, I don't want to have some <Censored> <Censored> teenager who thinks it's cool to drink driving around on neighborhood roads and interstates. It's flat out dangerous and deadly.
 
I really think your making a big deal out of a relativly little problem.
 
How is it a little problem?Drinking is an addiction that should be stopped for underage people and for olderage people, as well.I'm Muslim, so Muslims don't drink anyway, but still, it's bad for your health.And hey, I've heard stories when teens get drunk and somebody ended up dying, and kids going to the hospital.I saw a teen who was with two 2-liter bottles of beer, which I saw inside the car, and he was arrested.Read that short story...http://www.themodernreligion.com/misc/booz...hol_tragedy.htm"O you who believe, intoxicants, and gambling, and the altars of idols, and the games of chance are abominations of the devil; you shall avoid them, that you may succeed." 5:90
 
I don't support it at all, because whether you like it or not Drinking is bad for your heatlh - people will say: "well thats only if you drink a lot." A lot of people, especially teens can't control themselves when they're drunk. You start off with a couple drinks - yes, its not a big deal, than you get a couple more - ok you're a little drunk now - than you get some more, now you're pretty drunk, and no you will not be able to control yourself. The fact is, that drinking is something I will not do, or anyone else should do - because why would you do something bad for your health - its somethning that can kill you when done excessively. Btw, most teens dont go to bars to get alcohol, it is usually bought by someone older and they have no limits. BCB, i can hardly believe that no one at your high school get a DUI, that is unbelievable. At my school 15 ppl got DUI's for getting drunk at a school assembly. Also, I have seen it myself - kids get alcohol and drink it like crazy till half of them are passed out. not good at all.To me, if given by a parent, taht parent is irresponsible, but thats my view on it. I can see why people say if the parents give it to their kid its not a big deal because they'll be watching them - but I dont support the whole drinking thing anyway whether it be a little bit or a lot.

I dont really care, I do it personally and most of the people I know do, too..Its more of a social thing just hang out and drink..I dont think its a big deal as long as you dont drive obviously..Beer Pong? Yeaaah..

I'm sorry, but if you think it is a little problem now you must be crazy. If you legalize it for minors you'll only be making the problem worse because it will be easier for minors to get their hands on alcohol. If you lower the age for drinking you'd have raise the age for driving.
 
Theres a big difference between drinking and drinking and driving...Im 100% against drinking and driving, but I have no problem with just drinking as long as your not going over your limit..
