The Age Of Responsibility Frank Wagenaar Analysis
There are a lot of things wrong with American laws but I believe one thing is right, the drinking age. In the article "What is the Age of Responsibility?", contributors Franklin Zimring and Alexander Wagenaar support my belief that adulthood starts at the age of 21.

The problem with the drinking age being 18 is that 18
