Sorry Dani, got to disagree... Facts:

 

* At 16 your body is not necessarily developed enough to cope with alcohol.

 

 

 

And perhaps your mind is not sufficiently developed to vote either????

 

 

 

 

Further to your reply Bukes, and I ccan't be bothered to quote individual bits:

 

The point is that at 16 far more adolescents are simply not mature enough to vote, I never suggested all. Yet we have to have a system which endeavours to minimise the opportunity of abusing that system. At 16 is is simply more feasible that dubious voting patterns would occur.

 

As a nation with the highest teenage pregnancy rate in Europe i seems somewhat of a paradox to suggest that a 16 year old is capable of reasoning whom to vote for yet is unable to remember to use a condom.

 

The part of the brain that limits are reckless behaviour is not fully developed until we are well into our 20's hence the general feeling of invinciblity/immortality amongst teenagers. If anything this is an argument for raising the voting age and not lowering it.

i say, if you're old enough to take drugs, you're old enough to vote.

 

or was it the other way round scratchy.gif

Tresh, I take your points. I think, however, that giving people a bit of responsibility and educating people properly in such matters would work.

Unfortunately dude we don't live in an ideal world, it's not something that can be changed overnight.

 

Admittedly it' something we could progress to over a long time period. Educate the people with a view to them becoming responsible, and have voting as the reward once they've shown it can be used responsibly. However we need to ensure that there are caveats in place to prevent abuse of the system.

 

We've already seen what happened with postal voting. If "adults" are quite prepared to abuse the system then you can bet your bottom dollar that minors will.

My teenage daughter has been kidnapped, and the people I work with may be involved in both.
