I was 12 when I started to drink.
Shh!
Don't tell anyone!

I think I had my first beer at 16. I didn't really drink much after that - could never get what the fuss was all about. I guess I just never liked beer :)

At 21 I started drinking since I was legal and hey bars were pretty fun!

I think I was 11 the first time my parents brought a bottle of campaign home from a Christmas party and let me have a little. I'm sure my Dad probably let me have a sip of his beer even before that.

German background, parents put beer in baby body to help settle stomach issues, beer and wine freely available for meals in small amounts.

I don't plan to ever drink, in school they always show peple who are killed by drunk drivers and I do not want to be drunk and look like an idiot.

That's very admirable. Most kids your age love to go out and drink. Good for you for not giving into peer pressure.

In our area, there has been 3 or 4 car accidents in the last month, there's been services in school chapel for two people, one accident was rite up the road from us while we were planting trees, I'm sick of hearing about people dying from stupid mistakes.
I'm sick of seeing photos of people I never met and who I will never be able to meet being shown with slow sad music in chapel.

Every day in school we would learn about drugs and alcohol. We watched movies of parents talking about their experience with a dead child who died by drugs/alcohol. We also watched how people acted, and treated each other. Its scary and yeah I'm sure one day ill try alcohol, but I would make sure a trusting friend would make sure I have no more than a sip. The only time I would ever drink is at my wedding, or maybe ill sneak cranberry juice into a bottle

I started to drink when I had my own place to live, and could drink with my friends without having anyone drive afterwards, or leave until the next morning.
