Would you consider it terribly wrong for a 14 year old to have one alcoholic drink out of curiosity?!
Like, not getting drunk or anything!.!.!.just having one glass of something!. I've been thinking about this forever, and it's killing me!. I'm like, it's wrong, cause it's illegal, but there are worse things you could be doing other than having one glass of beer!.!.!.
The same question goes for 15-19 year olds as well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Answers:
In 34 states, parents have the ability to give their children under age 21 alcohol for them to consume in the parent's household!.
I'll agree it's illegal to buy alcohol under 21; though, technically, we may note that the police would not ticket you if you turned in the alcohol and told them where you bought it -- the store will end up with a big fine!.
Now, what could be so bad about having a drink if 34 states think it's okay for minors to do in the presence of their parent(s)!? I will not agree that it is a great idea to get plastered as a teenager, which increases the chances of becoming alcoholic when done on a regular basis!. But a drink here and there, without getting drunk, is not a big deal!. Look at the rest of the world, their kids aren't any worse off!. The US has the highest purchase age in the world (if we remove countries that prohibit alcohol outright), which I find utterly baffling!.
I personally think that if the parents in society listened to their child's curiosity about alcohol, and taught them how to drink responsibly we wouldn't have as many problems with underage drinking as we do!. We also might have less problems with college drinking!. Yes, college kids will drink, but if they are taught how to control themselves there would probably be fewer arrests, DUIs, and unexpected sexual encounters!. You will *never* be able to say that people wouldn't get drunk; it's human nature to be curious, and to see just what alcohol does!. I've been drunk a lot of times, and it's basically lost the appeal after a couple of rough nights!. I still drink, actually, I just had some Scotch and a beer this evening!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm 16 and I drink some wine once or twice a week at night!.!.!.It's about a glass and it's really nothing!.
I think some laws are meant to be there for protection!. Like if you're caught doing a crime while drunk, then you should have known better than to drink so much while it is illegal for you!. Otherwise, if it is small and at home, then why not!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

My mom gave me the best parenting advice ever!.!.!.!. No matter how we feel about a law we do not have the right to pick and chose which ones we will obey!. In my house with my kids ( 3 teens and a 23 year old) a law is a law- No J-walking- no petty theft and no under age drinkingWww@FoodAQ@Com
yes! first its just a sip then its a 6 pack then its to the bar! then its getting knocked up! then its killing the baby because you cant handle being a teenage mom! then next thing you know, you end up in jail!!! and thats why drinking is not good for under aged people!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Yes, but only because my kids father (sperm donor now) is an alcholic, and his father is one, and his father was one (before he died)!. It runs in the family!.
