Answer 1

You're not going to grow any faster, that's for sure.

Medically, your brain is still developing well into your teens.  Alcohol can slow that down, making you stupider.  If you drink a lot at 16, because your hormonal and emotional development is at its earliest, you are likely to develop an alcohol dependency (alcoholism.)

Children (under 10) who drink alcohol sometimes show massive amounts of brain damage.  A pregnant woman who drinks alcohol will almost certainly give birth to a deformed, or at best, mentally disabled child.

Answer 2

nothing will happen but when your 16 you can develop an alcohol dependency easily

Answer 3

There are NO pros in drinking beers. Unless you want to pickle your insides and have an alcohol problem before you're of legal drinking age.

Answer 4

The risks? They are many, but the most important one is just this;-children do not know when to say 'enough', do they?

Learning to speak a language is easy when you are young, and harder when you get older. Even now, at 16 it is hard to learn to speak a new language for many of your classmates. Now imagine this, a child learns to drink. When the child grows older, into an adult, and needs to focus on things like college, and work, how difficult will it be to learn a new way of life? One without, or with limited alcohol in it?

Answer 5

pros:

it can be entertaining

cons:

its illegal and you can be caught, you can make mistakes, get in accidents, have unprotected s*x, get liver disease, brain damage... on and on

basically there you go, pros and cons of underage drinking.
