People going out drinking on Friday nights, underage?

I just read someone's thread and thought This could be good!

Well, I'm ok for it HOWEVER. Not if they're anti-social and get into fights etc.. and aslong as they take their rubbish with them :rolleyes:

I don't do it myself but another thing that annoys me is when people come up to you at school "y0 mert. gotz ten peez pls i wnt sum pizza" "uh, no.. not for you " then they walk off.. it's obv. they're going to buy cigarettes ANDDDDDDDDDDDD. there's this kid at my school, in my year (10) and he goes round asking for money for the Friday night fun fund.. it's where everyone goes out drinking and they use other peoples money to buy the drink.. :eusa_wall

I'm so glad I don't go out on Friday nights, I have a job.. that job's not out drinking on the streets

It's fine, it's their decision to. I sometimes do it, not often though maybe monthly. As long as people don't start getting in fights and stuff it's alright.

I work Friday nights but often go out when I finish, at 9 (which is when the parties really get started anyway!). Friday night is one of the traditional party nights, and I see no problem with people going out to get drunk, be it over or under age. Providing people are sensible and don't go too far, there is no reason why they shouldn't have fun .

I'm completely against it, to go out for the purpose of getting drunk is irresponsible and there are far safer ways of having fun. Going out to a pub/club/ w/e and having a drink is tolerable because thats what a bar is there for, but people who go to those bars for the express reason of getting drunk are out of order imo. No matter how "hard" you think you are or how much you think you can take, alcohol will always have a negative affect on you and chances are something bad will happen.

I think it is fine, I used to do and it didn't cause anyone any harm.
Now I drink in friends houses or in clubs etc.

I blame the people who run the countrys/towns etc, they don't give anything for kids to do, so it ends up with them having to drink.
Such as youth clubs, the two youth clubs that i have visited in the past are terrible, a snooker table and a table tennis table and a TV, which is ment to be shared between like 30 or more kids at one time? I don't think so.

If they are drinking and causing problems then fair enough I am against that, but not when they do nothing wrong.
Twice a year like every teenager in the town goes to ceartin events and gets hammered, last time the police decided to try and stop it, it caused every1 to move onto the street and get wound up and then houses and cars got damaged.

Your missing out if you aint had a scatty rek up on a friday night when you were younger!!

I'm not 18 yet but I've been going out most weekends to clubs/pubs since I was 15/16, but I never get to the point where I can't stand or get into fights.
I hate aggression and violence and hate people who ruin other people's lifes because of drinking.
So no I don't mind about underage drinking aslong as the person doing it is sensible.
And anyway..anyone, any age can cause trouble, not just underagers.

if they always get drunk its bad, if not its ok i guess.

I used to go out on Friday nights last year, but then it just stopped. I think it's because this year most people are having parties- since this is the year we turn 16 (my school year that is)!

I used to get alcohol for me and a few of my friends from my brother, and take it out in to the woods where we used to go. It'd range how many people would go... from at least 15, up to about 40 on a couple of occasions!

The group just began to grow, and grow- until people we don't even know began to come; then it sorta got scary and all you used to think was "oh god. are they gna start?" ... Luckily, they didn't... but i guess that's another reason we stopped.

I suppose it's the people's choice. You're not forced to go out and do it; if you want, you can! I suppose people like the excitement of forgetting everything for a night; for having fun with their friends; and just being a different person for a night, really.

My Friday nights were fun!

Oh, apart from the time I got very drunked.
I went the pizza shop, was sick in there; I forgot to pay for my chips.
And when I got home and went to bed, I puked in my sleep 3 times!
(Yeah. Yeah.. dangerous, I know.)
But yeah.
I woke up in the morning like... EWWWWWW! WT*?!!!

I usually drink round my house with mates or at one of theirs before going out and then take a few more out with me when it gets a bit later. I've gotten into a few scraps on friday nights (quite enjoyable, I like violence & the adrenaline rush) & they've all "deserved" it so don't go saying "I've ruined someone's night" because if I get into a scrap then so be it.

around ere, there is alot of people that tend to get into fights on friday nights, as they go onto each others little town, wtever..

but i jus go out on a friday night, maybe have a couple of drinks & jus have fun.
although some of the kids that i kno that go out and get in fights, tend to try & not too, as they just want to have fun aswell..

thats why they have started gettin more police around.
only bad thing about that - if you get caught with the booze - your done for. lol.
