In class we discussed Britain's attitudes to drinking and why some people mainly age groups drink more than others. The statistics shown presented to me in my lecture said that 42% of men and 36% of women ages 16-24 drink Heavier than other age group and above the daily recommendations. I can believe this, because every Friday night after school me and my friends would consume large amounts of alcohol like most of the other young people did when we was around 14-17 years of age. The reason why we used to drink heavily was, because we had no school the next day and it was a time when most of the young people from school and surrounding area was out and we weren't at the legal age to buy alcohol from he shop so once we got hold of it we drank as much as we could, because we found pleasue and fun in getting drunk and not being in control of our actions often blaming what we did on the drink, but we would still continue to drink the following week.
In the bible it says that we shouldn't drink to get drunk which changed my view on drinking and now when i drink i watch how much i have consumed or i sometimes don't drink at all, because the bible also says that little bit of wine is good for the soul. Below are two links about this subject one is an advert about drinking the second is the effects of drinking please comment about this subject and tell me what you think.
