Minimum Drinking Age
Posted: Thursday April 23 2009 03:11 PM

In Europe, Britain has the third highest underage drinking rate. Is this because we are so strict on the legal age to buy alcohol?
In other European countries, lower age restrictions to purchase alcohol apply. For example, Germany's legal drinking age is 16 whereas in countries like Portugal and Poland, there is no minimum age to when you can start drinking.
Perhaps, if we had no minimum drinking age (as do Poland) then maybe the novelty will wear off, seeing as they are no longer breaking the law.
Or should the minimum drinking age be changed to 21(the same as the US legal drinking age)?
