Closed petition Change the legal drinking age to 16
Closed on
I think 16 year olds should be allowed to buy alcohol because they can legally leave school at that age and move out, making them a legal adult basically.
Change legal drinking age to 16 because 16 year olds can move out and leave school at 16 making them basically a legal adult. Therefore they should be entitled to adult privileges.
