Different polices of alcohol in Vermont compared to Germany

Drinking is more likely to kill young people than illegal drugs. People who begin drinking before the age of 15 are more open to damaging their liver and are four times likely to develop alcohol dependence at some time in their lives.

In Vermont two out of three teens the ages between 15-16 says its easy to get alcohol from their homes with out parents knowing it.

One out of four Vermont teens think that drinking alcohol daily could be harmful to their health.


In Germany at the age of 14 they are aloud to drink beer, wine, and others if accompanied by a custodial person.  At 16 they can drink without a legal guardian, and at 18  they are aloud to access distilled spirits.

Vermont and Germany are very different in alcohol wise and Germany is less restricted than Vermont. In Vermont if you are caught drinking underage you can get a fine and sent to jail. In Germany you would just need a guardian to watch over you. In that case Vermont has a safer economy than Germany.

Say no to Alcohol till 21 or over
