Website from Europe as I born there. I voted yes. Good for them to learn. I drink when I was very young as under 10, I think and I have no problem with drink for now.
Most of my friends who start drink 18-20 age and out of control. That's how many students drop off from college due drunk too much from party.
You don't see why American have more DUI than Europe?
True, good food and good wine are a natural part of Europe culture, that's how we grow up with wine or beer as a normal part of life. (not heavy spirits).
Europeans know how to enjoy themselves without causing trouble when they drink alcohol and more civilized because they learn at early age.
That's why teenagers learn how to respect when it comes to alcohol, or similar substances. In Europe, most parents can sit down with their child and have a beer or glass of wine during meal. It’s about respect and open and broad-minded, that's how they learn to act maturely.
I prefer to educate children to open mind and respect anything than hide something from them. Its teach moderation and responsible drinking at a very early age is the best.
How can we expect children to be responsible about this sort of thing when adults aren’t? Teenagers have the chance to experiment at this age and up to a point I think they should be allowed to.
The study shows that the strict parents were with alcohol in the home, would more likely the children suffer from alcoholism later as the strict laws would cause people later abuse. We know that forbid young people to drinking does not work. All what they do is learn to handle their responsible how to limit and respect alcohol.
If you treat young adults like children, they will act like children.
Yes, true that red wine is health only if you drink moderately. (Good for LDL cholesterol and heart, blood, Anti-aging). White wine is good for lung.
