Should you drink underage?

<p>I don’t see the whole issue with underage drinking. I’m not going to get into any depth, but I will say this. Yes, I’ve gone to more than my share of HS parties. As far as I’m concerned, no one did anything wrong. I think it’s important to be able to enjoy one’s youth while one still has the opportunity, especially as a teenager.</p>

<p>I know many kids that were the sheltered type in high school and never did anything of the sort. By the time they got to college, they were finally able to do whatever their heart desires and as freshmen in college, clearly abuse alcohol. I feel that these kids never were able to enjoy themselves at a younger age and thus rush to overcompensate. This IMO is far worse than anything bad that can happen by drinking in HS.</p>
