Answer:
If the legal drinking age was lowered to 18, people wouldn't have to jeopardize their futures by obtaining and using false identifications. Many underage drinkers will quickly consume larger amounts of alcohol prior to going out instead of drinking over an extended period of time. It would reduce the abuse of alcohol among young people. Proponents of lowering the minimum legal drinking age (MLDA) from 21 argue that it has not stopped teen drinking, and has instead pushed underage binge drinking into private and less controlled environments, leading to more health and life-endangering behavior by teens.
