    Grew up in South America and underage drinking, though illegal in theory, is pretty much the norm.

        Interesting. I’m in Australia now and people here actually do respect the law when it comes to drinking. If you are under 18, it’s unlikely you will be able to buy alcohol or get into a nightclub etc. It would be shocking to hear someone got pissed drunk at 15, whereas where I come from that isn’t the case.

        From OPs post I presumed US would be more like Australia in that regard, but, I take your word

          That might be more to do with your social circles. There was a shit ton of teenage drinking happening when I was in high-school.
