Counterpoint: My friends and I drank at that age, all got good grades and are now fully functioning members of society. Can't speak to the 90s specifically as I was a teenager in the 2000s, but your personal antecedents are hardly a hard and fast rule.

​

EDIT: Looked it up and between the years 1991 - 1993 the median age for teenagers to start drinking was 13.65 years, so a 14 - 15 year old drinking is right in line.

I’m just kinda saying to me it’s pretty mind blowing my peers would have been doing that while we were that young but I consider it fortunate I wasn’t around people like that back then to have known because damn that’s sad.

You should, because parents who allowed their kids to drink and party and all of that other stuff aren't real parents.
