well are you sure you want to drink? do you fell it is right to drink at that age?.... first af all does your country allows you to drink at your actual age? if the answer is not as i guess it is then you mustnīt drink now and wait some years in order to start drinking :-) hehe buuut as i also guess it doesn't make any sense for you and your friends to start drinking at a higher age i think you should first think if it is right for you to drink....
what made you drink? and also what makes you drink in the way you do it? did you have an invitation that start all the drinking?.... do not start something by invitation from friends... friends are excellent for talking and for supporting but when you received a bad invitation then think about it very carefully and also very reasonable. I know it is exciting to drink but are you ready to do it? or do you thik you should do it? if not then just go away from there and start again... i have always thought that if you are unsure about something then say no.... sometimes we just do things just because other people do it... but it you are not sure about doing it then do not doi it!!.... About your question on your brain problem... there are no problems that i know so far... in fact the only part i have heard you hurt is your libber and well if you hurt it you might not be able to drink things as coffee or any spicy products... Hope it helps |

if you feel like you are ready to drink than there is no-one (except the law officials:D) that can prohibit you that.
but beware, one thing is drikking with friends, the other is drinking your self to death on a party and than being proud about it. that is just discusting. if you got to drink, than drink until you can still stand and walk and than stop. atleast untill you grow a little bit older |

During the teen years, the brain is still developing. Drinking during that stage is much worse than drinking when you're older because it can hurt the brain cells that are forming in addition to the ones that are already there. If you drink a lot as a teen but stop completely, some stuff can reform, but it's still a really bad idea.

I don't see why people have to "smoke" "drink" "have sex" at such an early age. It's not like you'll miss out on all of these 5 or so years later. Waiting only makes the rewards taste sweeter than when you have it early.
I personally am against drinking at all. (Can't say I'll still agree if for whatever reason I decide to take up drinking though...) It doesn't help me at all, all it does is waste money. It doesn't taste good. And drinking it will only hurt me more than it will help me. Sure, it might help me fall asleep faster (psh) or forget my troubles, but it seems kinda redundant to me. |

Hmm, well, I don't see why it is to young to start drinking. But if you are getting drunk every weekend and stuff, I don't think that is right either. I am 16, I drink, I have sex, I smoke. I'm not saying that to brag or anything. But I do them all for reasons. I drink because I love the taste of certain drinks, I never drink to get pissed anymore. I did that a few times, and there is very little point. I still partake in the occasional drinking contest, but really, nothing regular.
I guess like all things, it is a case of moderation, too much alcohol is very bad for you. I avoid drinking a lot on week nights, and maybe drink more on weekends, but even then I will only drink about 5 Shots of Jack Daniels, and about 3-4 beers. Don't use this a guide as it all differs from person to person. But after that, I can still do most things to a suitable level. For example, I can still walk, talk properly. I wouldn't drink to get drunk at any age. But if you are drinking with friends, and because you like the taste, then there really isn't a problem at 15. Personally I think the law fro drinking should be lowered to 16. I think it most absurd that you can go and die for your country at 16, and not stroll into a pub and get a beer. |

im from wisconsin and here people start drink really young, we have a law here in wisconsin that the day you are born you are legally allowed to drink in the bars if you are accompianed by your parents.....and 15 is not too young as long as your not being totally stupid about it
