Does anyone really think this will help with under-age drinking or make it worse?

Yes I agree that the legal age for drinking alcohol should be raised to 21,like it is in America,problem here is the cats already out of the bag.Its a worry that so many young people are wiping themselves out with irresponsible drinking and given that alcohol is a poison and young peoples brains are not fully developed until 24-25 years of age,with this mindless drinking they are causing irreversible damage to their brains and that is of serious concern,not to mention the alcohol induced road accidents.
