Poll: Did you drink when you were underage?

Ireland is regularly criticised for its drinking culture with underage drinking a particular problem. So be honest, did you drink when you were underage?

IRELAND IS KNOWN as having a drinking culture but does that mean we are putting our young people under pressure to drink at an earlier age?

Last night, dozens of young people were treated for the effects of drink and drugs at a gig in Northern Ireland.

The DJ from last nights gig will perform in Dublin later tonight.

So today we’re asking if you had your first drink when you were underage?


Poll Results:

Yes, but under parental guidance (5236)
Yes (2766)
No, I've never taken a drink (861)
No (807)
