Okay, you're right. People
shouldn't be able to get married until 33, either.
Kidding aside, in some states under certain circumstances, kids much younger than 18 can and do get married. I'm wondering if we should lower the drinking age to include all teens for that reason?
Same applies to the college "wanna break the rules and be a badass" logic. I taught both high school and college ages, and high school kids have the same pressures to want to drink. So we lower the drinking age to the summer after eighth grade?
