The minimum standard legal drinking age refers to the minimum age at which beverage alcohol can be consumed. In some countries there are some special circumstances, which may bend the rules of the standard legal age of consumption. In the US 31 of 50 states have laws that prohibit or limit the consumption of beverage alcohol for any individuals under 21. For the most part these laws make no reference to alcohol consumption in the home. This doesn't mean that you should go and get your kids drunk tonight! From the information that was available, the national laws generally apply to drinking age limits for such places as, outside the home, taverns, bars, restaurants, nightclubs and more of the public places. The issue of enforcing drinking age laws is a major issue for most governments. There are a variety of issues that play a part in a governments decision to set a minimum consumption age. Now lets see them trying to enforce it!
I myself have quit drinking for 4 years now! Sadr.
