I would have to say that alcohol is definitely a good thing as long as you do it safely.

50 Cent is exactly right with this, it is possibly the dumbest thing you could do. Also, drinking then go out places when you're under age is kind of stupid too. Other than that, find a safe place where nothing is going to happen, and drink away. There's nothing wrong with having a couple of beers every once in a while, or every weekend.
