I always heard tales about how the sophisticated French would let their children drink wine which resulted in a much more enlightened society. Not like us uptight Americans.
French lawmakers have voted to ban alcohol sales to minors as part of a crackdown on teenage binge-drinking, but dropped contested plans to ban wine tastings and alcohol ads on the Internet.
Good for them. I’m sure it’s not the perfect answer but it’s interesting they have the same problems too.
