This is a difficult poll to answer. I’m not really for letting underage teens drink but how wise is it to “forbid” them to do so? Teens and even young adults past age 21 can either be very moderate in their drinking…or go overboard and get themselves into all kinds of trouble. I don’t believe they will go either way depending on how much they are allowed or not; the clue lies in being able to talk about it freely with their own parents and getting insight from their experiences while still being allowed to choose which way to go about it. In many cases, parents are so hung-up about drinking, sex, drugs and other hot topics that it makes them extremely uncomfortable to talk about them with their kids…bad move.
