Age limits have been put there to keep us out of danger and stop us being injured. For example. if you saw a 10 year old driving a car then they would most likely have a crash at least once in their life which can cause many more accidents on the roads. If age limits wernt there then we would all be in danger.
Britains become of age at 18. This would probably mean that they are allowed to vote at this age.

Some topics to discuss or have arguments about for 7th grade students might include the topic of cellphone use in cars, texting while driving, lowering the driving age, lowering the drinking age, and even whether or not students should have lockers in school. Another good topic might include the death penalty for crime.

NO! The driving age shouldn't be lowered at all, if anything it should be highered!
As you know there are many arguments for raising the driving age, the main one, being fatality statistics that don't lie. New drivers, 16 and 17-year-olds, have a higher chance of dieing... On the othert hand how are these kids going to get to work.. Will postboing the driving age back a couple years really solve the problem or will it create a even older class of unexperianced? In my opinion the driving age should only be raised if people who are 16, 17, and so on are able to drive but with restrictions. tight restrictions. Every 6 months you get to be out an hour later.. More people in your car etc... You should get your full unrestricted license at 18..
Well, that is not lowering the age, it is increasing the age.

Lowering the Driving AgeSome believe it should be lowered to 14 and 8 months to get your license and that you should be able to determine when to take drivers training. Others even believe the driving age should be lowered to age 11. Views about this are likely divided by age. Those who would benefit from a lower driving age are likely to believe it should be lowered, but those who already have their license are likely to disagree.

The legal age for driving in Liechtenstein is 18.
No drinking age in California shouldn't be lower because teenagers aren't mature enough.. I disagree at the age of 18 an individual is considered an adult by society and having a drinking age higher than the age of majority only creates discrimination and a feeling of unjust to those at whom the law is aimed there are a couple of things i would like to point out they are as follows: 1. Every other country in the world has a drinking age at 18 2.Drinking at 18 will not damage your brain because if this were true everyone else in the world who began drinking at 18 (and that is everyone living in another country other than america) would have severe brain impairments as suggested by Madd (the ones responsible for the worst law in the history of this country) 3.The adult brain does reach full development as it relates to descision making until the mid twenties to thirties(25-30 yrs of age) so this is a clear contradiction to what mothers against drunk driving say that 21 is a right age the fact is the right age for this society is 18 because that is the age of majority. 4. To the misguided soccer mom who wrote that teenagers arent mature enough i have a few words for you. At the age of 18 you are for mature enough to serve as an adult for every aspect of society for e.g (military,vote,jury duty,go to adult prision etc) Here are educated arguments for lowering the drinking age
