Question by Chri: “Pathos” for my hook why drinking age should stay 21?
please i need something emotional or showing empathy for which why drinking age should be lowered to 18!

Best answer:

Answer by khoffman
Your question says why it should stay 21, but your text says should be lowered to 18, so I’m only guessing at what it is you actually want.

Sample emotional arguments for lowering the drinking age:

– “Men and Women can sign-up, serve, and die for our country, yet they’re not considered mature enough to taste alcohol?”
– “Men and Women can legally marry and bring a new life into the world through children, yet they’re not considered mature enough to taste alcohol?”
– “Men and Women can vote for laws determining the nation’s leaders and laws, yet they’re not considered mature enough to taste alcohol?”

Hope that helps!

Question by y2j: How to quit drinking and smoking at a young age and what will happen to my body?
OK I am 17 years old, and have been drinking since 14. I never really considered my self an alcoholic. But I would drink heavily at times specially this last summer probably every weekend Friday, Saturday, at times even Sunday. I really enjoyed drinking because I would make me feel good and I always had a good time, I always made excuses to drink. Smoking wise I also started at 14 when I started high school Probably Before school, and after and many if I would ditch. At home I really would not smoke because of my mom. I only smoke when i drink or go out with friends so It wont be that hard. I want to know the best ways to avoid drinking and smoking when I am offered them. I also want to know what damage has happened to my body and what will happen as I stop drinking and smoking. BTW its my new years resolution to quit these and start hitting the gym more to be more fit by the summer time.
