Speaking of smoking, I wonder what's the author's opinion regarding alcohol. I and other friends have drunk (or better said tasted) wine and beer since we were kids (less than 10 years old) and we haven't become alcoholics. Sure, I know a couple of people who drink a bit too much at parties, but still, I don't think that forbidding them to drink until they were 21 would have avoided this. If someone wants to shoot himself in the foot, I don't see how some law can stop this.
- ErrantX 16y agoI think this is true. There is even ample evidence that relaxed approaches to alcohol does not have an adverse affect. In France, for example, it is (or was) pretty common to offer children small amounts of wine or beer at a relatively young age. My family had a similar approach and I turned out ok :)
