Should 21 be the Drinking Age?

This is a question that most young adults ask themselves at least once every weekend, why, why do you have to be 21 years old to drink a beer?

This is one subject that I strongly disagree on, I am a college student and am not of age to consume alcohol, in this country. I enjoy traveling to see my family over seas and spending most of my summers in Greece. There kids are going out to clubs and bars/ Kafe's since they were 15 years old, that sounds bad to most Americans because," Drinking is bad." at least thats what they tell us here in the States. But I can give honest criticism about this subject because I grew up there and most of my life here.

What happens when you tell most teens not do touch this or go there or do that? Most of the time they get curious and try those things that you tell them not too. The teens in Greece have been aloud to drink freely for years which has made them much more casual about it because it is no longer a big deal or in demand as much, sure the first couple time they will go get trashed but then its just like going out with buddies grabbing a beer and chillen. This is what separates myself from most kids here that I party with, we will all go have fun and go drink but I will just relax and mingle and the kids  who grew up here are chugging beers and just getting drunk because this is there one open opportunity to drink. But what happens when alcohol is aloud to be consumed on the regular and kids can have endless opportunities?

When a teen is alound to drink all the time, they don't care about getting drunk every time they drink because it is not something they you need to be sneaky and find. The one major thing I notice when I go out in Greece, you can sit back and watch the bar and right away notice who is from America because there not up walking around and mingling or just talking , they are pounding drinks and being loud. Why is that?

The answer is simple, when something like that is not in demand, kids don't abuse it. I have seen this many times over many years with my own eyes.
