As young adults mature and grow up, they may become curious with alcohol as they start college.

It has become evident that young teenaged adults will find a way to get through the 21-year-old age limit.

It’s no secret that young adults drink before they are 21. One has either done it, thought about it or doing it at the moment.

Either way young adults are going to find a way to get their alcohol.

Although many teenagers are aware that consuming alcohol before the legal age is illegal, they will more than likely take a risk and do it anyway, for whatever reason it may be.

House parties, fraternity houses and dorm parties is were the drinking usually takes place.

According to www.drinkingage.com, about 29 states allow underage drinking if it is done in the privacy of their own home, 25 if drinking is being done for a religious reason and seven states if for educational reasons such as culinary school.

So why not legalize underage drinking to 18 years of age?

After all, there is only so much that the police can do to stop young adults from drinking.

Police can’t just walk into a house party, and start aressting people.

In towns like Athens Oh. and State College Pa. were the population averages around 30,000 college students are more than likely to drink.

Ohio University and Penn State University rank in the top 10 for party schools according to the Princeton Review.

If at 18 years old we can join the military and fight for our country then why can’t young adults drink?

According to the same website, “18 is the age of adulthood in the United States, and adults should have the right to make their own decisions about alcohol consumption.”

Therefore, once a person turns 18, they should receive all rights and priviliges that they are entitled to being an adult.

Lowering the drinking age would be ideal as young adults would find a way to get their alcohol regardless of the drinking age being 21.
