I have heard of something they call "addictive personality" or something like that. You probably know the correct term for it. Genetically, some of us are just prone to addictions.
The worst reformed druggy I ever met was, at the time, addicted to his religion, and could not keep it to himself....
Not that those few people should be a reason for making new rules/laws, etc.
Exactly.
Now, I personally don't mind them lowering the legal ages - it seems ridiculous, to me, to let people vote, drive, work, drop out of highschool - but still adamately insist they are unable to handle drinking anything :shrug: Seems backwards.
But would a sudden repeal be ideal or advisable? No. . . just as when they reach 21 they hit the bar and fall apart - they'll then just hit 18 and fall apart . . . or 16, whatever.
The idea has to take hold socially - and maturely.
