I'm not saying I disagree with this, I just wish they would pick one age, and stick with it...not have one age legal for this, and a different age legal for something else.

I agree. If you're old enough to die for your counry, you oughta be old enough to take a drink.
And parents? Ugh....parents who take ANY responsibility for their kids are rapidly becoming the small minority. More and more we are living in a society that is willing to let others raise our kids so we dont have to sacrifice our lifestyles.
Both parents work so you can afford the big house, nice cars, good vacations, nice clothes, etc. The cost is the kid spends more time with daycare, school, babysitters or worse unattended completely as a teen than with the family.
