I was once a teenager and know what peer pressure was like especially when your peers are trying to get you to do something you don't want to but end up doing it anyway due to the fear of being called names or being embarassed or worst,being shunned by those who you thought were your friends. I was reading an old article printed a year ago and it stated girls are more susceptible to drinking underage than boys and tend to drink more compared to boys. Do you believe this to be true? I always thought teen boys would be more susceptible but the study proved other wise.Besides peer pressure,do you think teen girls drink because it makes them feel "cool"? What's so cool about vomiting and hangover the following day...

I dont drink or ever had tasted it. It is due to pressure from the family and friends. It is really banned in family to drink
