Alcohol consumption. I don't drink alcohol - ever. Never have and probably never will. And it can be really hard being with people, who find it cool and funny to drink excessive amounts. I volunteer as a scout leader in my country. It is astonisihing, what some of the troop leaders think of ok, when working with youth groups. And often enough even the regulations for underage drinking are broken (which are already relatively low, comparing to the US). They all just don't care as long as they get to drink as they like. You can probably hear how frustrated I am, though I'm over with fighting it. Won't change ever and it is not good for my psychological state to go against society here apart from my own personal decisions.
