Drinking age is a big problem for the USA, because of there is teenagers that try drink before they are of age. Drinking age is a big problem for the USA, because of there is teenagers that try drink before they are of age. When i was younger my family used to go camping every summer for a few days to see relatives. It was like a big family party were we went up to uncle bills camp sight and they would have jello shots and it wasn’t for kids cause we would get sick because of my cusion one day tried one.

So that when my family drinks we don’t drive we stay at our family’s home and acutely let it settle in showing that we need more time to mature. While if there 18 or younger drinking they make stupid mistakes like this teenager that was drinking one day was making a turn when my brother was driving me to my kickball game she rammed right into us because she didn’t know how to handle the steering wheel. We found out that she was coming
