I was a teen in the late 70s, I did a lot of things before I was 21 I would never admit to my kids.

A drink, as in just one drink. I've never gotten drunk. So much for the theory that people under 21 can't drink responsibly.

In the early 70s the government lowered the drinking age to 19.

Considering I live in a country with no age restriction on consumption of alcohol, of course! Not even 21 and drink daily. :)

Not hard drinking, but I went out to pubs and clubs. Mainly drank lager and black russians.

Way before 21 and even before the legal age of 18. That was the age you could buy alcohol when I was growing up.

In Britain, everyone has! It's unusual to not have had a drink before you're 16! We find it quite strange that Americans can be old enough to own guns, have sex, drive cars, get married, fight for their country, but still not be allowed to drink a glass of beer!

The "drinking age" in New York State was 18 before the pols wimped out and changed it to 21, by which time I was already 21 so it didn't matter. The 21-year drinking age is patently absurd when you can vote and die for your country at age 18!

In the service and overseas it is permissible to drink in the local base bars if you are 18 and above. Back in 65 beer was a dime a can in those places. So for two bucks you could get pretty wasted and being a red blooded American it was my duty to volunteer as quality control expert on various suds.

More then than now. Anyway, in my country, 18 is the legal age, but nobody cares if you drink after you are 16. Nowadays, they even sell drinks to younger people

OMG, yes, and I probably was guilty of abusing alcohol! I ran with a pretty wild crowd. By the time I became old enough to drink legally, it was no longer as much fun.
