1. The United States should change the drinking age from 21 to 18 to match the rest of the world with their drinking ages at 18 and even sometimes 16.
2. The only country with the drinking age of 21 is the United States
If you are able to vote, smoke and be in the army you should be able to drink
Many kids in college drink and if it was legal at 18 they would be much more responsible about it and not drink just to drink and get drunk
3. The point I want to counter argue is that the one about kids in college drinking just to get drunk
4. If it was legal and since it would be a new thing, more kids would drink. Also kids will still drink just to get drunk.
5. It might seem that even with the drinking age 18 some kids would still drink to get drunk and abuse drinking, the numbers of kids getting wasted would be lowered
6. However changing the drinking age to 18 would make it a more social event and more common so kids could drink whenever they want and they wouldnt abuse it all at one time.
7. It might seem that even with the drinking age at 18, some kids would still drink to get drunk and abuse it. While that may be true, changing the drinking age to 18 would make it a more social event and much more common and kids wouldnt abuse drinking all at one time.

Drinking age is a really big argument in the common day of teens. It seems like there are no clear answers on why they changed it from a once 18 to a now 21. Did our parents ruin it for us. Probably, but most parents now are sticklers about drinking. Did they not get to drink when they were 18? Do they think that they were more mature kids than us? I dont think so. Basically it should be lowered and parents shouldnt be so ignorant about drinking.
