Underage Drinking.

I jsut want to say, the live is the only human organ that can heal itself, if you get a bit of liver damage as long as you dont drink a lot for a ewhile it will re create itself

Wow, that's pretty young, but your choice. I would make sure you don't get caught though as if it is a school trip, won't there be teachers supervising?

65% of teenagers report to a survey that they have been drunk in the past month.

48% of 10 year olds say that they have had alcohol in the past month.

I don't think it is an issue if you aren't an alcoholic. Drinking on weekends is very common with everyone, and I don't think it is harming you to the extent that you do.

Anyways,
I drink on weekends, but very rarely weekdays. I try to avoid feeling horrible in the morning before school =\

Oh well, it is impossible to stop underage drinking anyways as many kids/teenagers just drink in there own home.

Just because alot of kids do it, and it's hard to stop, doesn't mean we shouldn't try. And I admit I drink quite a bit, but like smoking it's making me realize I'm only hurting myself.

I think the only reasons we should try for some of them are if they want help with their drinking, or it is causing a negative impact on their life.

Otherwise, I don't think money should be spent to attempt to stop some underagers from drinking occasionally.

Yep that's true, it isn't illegal to drink in yours or someone elses home, but i think you have to be over the age of 6, because before then your liver hasn't fully developed or something? Anyways, I have the odd drink, although sometimes I do get a bit carried away....[looks at Jacko ] but I wouldn't say Im an alcoholic.

I have a sip every now and then, but not a bottle of vodka!!!!!
Infertility, aaaaaarrrrrgggghhhhh!!!!!

Im 14 nearly 15 and lots of people in my year and age drink ..a..lot. I don't drink alcohol at all, im fine with coke, i don't see why people have to drink alcohol excessivley to have a good time? Like i have mates who go 'Oh im gonna get drunk this weekend im well excited' How is it exciting? Lol :S I'm not saying you shouldn't have a drink now and again just does my head in when people need to drink to have a good time.
