I also don't think it isn't that bad for kids to experience drinking beer as long as it doesn't addict them. I haven't heard about know any children that like to drink beer because it taste good but know they tried it because they are curious. But i find it funny in the commercial that the adult is drinking the kid drink with the children. I don’t think underage drinking will ever stop and i don’t really care.

I mean i don't think this would help lower drinking but i don't think it will necessarily increase it either in youth. Under-agers who want alcohol will probably find a way to get it. Those who want to "look cool" like they're drinking beer will just get this. It’s an interesting idea but it’s kind of like those candy cigarettes if you’ve heard of those.

As the result, the Japanese has done a really good job to make everyone has same chance to do what they like and got "drunk".

I feel like it would be a cool thing to have for the kids at special occasions but that's about it. I doubt if it would out sell the normal soda pops on the market just because it foams like a real beer I think that this would only go over so well.

The Japanese counterpart, on the other hand, if it contains no alcohol, I personally see no problem with. It is outrageous that politicians have shot the idea down already without even an attempt and releasing it.

They can't control money.If their parents think this kind of product will have a bad influence on their kids, then the sales will go down.

Any thing adding to that any earlier in life is a horrible idea, but I don't think this is a bad step really. Half of what gets minors abusing alcohol is the fact that it feels rebellious and sneaky. If beer were "old new" sooner it wouldn't be abused as often. On a side note about drinking habits, and laws in general, concerned citizens shouldn't fight to keep laws in place that don't work. I think the best solution to drinking in America is a drinking permit. If at 18 parents feel there children are old enough to drink they should be allowed to the B.M.V. or possibly some other type of government bureau and get their children a drinking permit. You would only be able to drink with you're legal guardians. The level of alcohol abuse is absurd in America.
