About 500m from my house is Paradice ice skating, also know as East Aucklands underage night club.

About 2am on a Friday night its quite common to see 1-200hundred 13-16yr old teenagers wondering around the streets.
Many of them are Drunk, and every now and then a few of them are caught fornicating in bushs and behind parked cars etc, or in the toilets of the near by gas stations.

And it will only get worse untill parents start to take some responsiblity for having kids and spend more on them than just money, and society takes some responsiblity and provides more in the way of entertianment than TV, Videos, and under age rages.

OMFG I am so sorry, 9 Friday nights out of 10 I have to pick up my Sister and her friends from thoseblasted rave things and there is some dumbass 14 y/o kid who is either pissed or stoned off his brick and walks up and asks for a ciggy/light I tell him to get fucked, he then tries to pick a fight and act tough, I push his drunk-ass down and walk away I don't know how I have resisted the urge to back over him

Is there a "drinking age" in NZ or Australia?

Can't say for Aus, but in NZ the drinking age was recently lowered to 18 in the face of overwhelming law avoidance by teenagers.....now we have 13-15 year olds getting their hands on hard liquor instead of 16-18 year olds.

Ah yes! The days of drinking when no one cared! I miss Europe! Still don't like beer though!

My friends and I were always more about the isolated parties that mostly just included ourselves staying at the "Cardboard Spaceship" (don't ask) and while we were in High School... Rules were 1) No drinking 2)No drugs 3)No sex 4)You must accept everybody 5)You have to sign the wall. And mostly we abided by them.

Now the group is smaller, but we still just prefer to cause trouble within our small group than out in public.

Sounds strict at the cardboard spaceship.

It was an apartment that was built beneath the unattached garage of my friend's house. We partied there. We'd have the most awesome times (yes, even without all the "stuff") there. The key was that you could arrive under a little influence of a substance, but not do the substance there... Trust me, we had plenty of "goths" in our group, and they wouldn't have come unless they could come high.

As for the name... I honestly forget the story of how it came to be, but it was just one of those things that stuck. Oh, and everyone who partied there is a "space monkey"... again, don't ask

I pictured some poorly made painted spaceship in a tree or something.

Space Monkey? OK, sometimes its best to stay in the dark.

Hmm, it is sad now that its 13 year olds out on the street. Hell I was 13, 4 years ago and i would of never just wandered the streets getting drunk and high. Its rather sad, and in the case of NZ something needs to be done about it.

I was in queen st last night and its just sad to see hundreds of fucked up pre-teens trying to act cool and get drunk. That is when the police should get involved, teenagers shouldn't be out on the street in these situations!

If you're going to get drunk, do it at a friends, or some party. Don't get drunk out on the street.

ROFL!!!! Same here

sarujin- another interesting post





Heres my thoughts- Once you are arrested for a felony involving public drunkeness and are under 18, you get a 10pm curfew slapped on you

drinking age in Aussie is the same as here 18.

It is good to see the mayor of Palmeston North calling for the pricks in parliment to raise the drinking age again following the fatal stabbing of a youth in (yet again) Highbury
