Answers:
Legally in all of the US is is illegal to consume alcohol under the age of 21!. There is really only one exception at that is wine as far as religious aspect!.
The answer would be no, in my humble opinion!. Serving alcohol to a 15 and 17 year old is insane, illegal!.
Just some of the charges you would be looking at!.!.!.
Contributing to the delinquincy of a minor
purchasing alcohol for a minor!.
Child endangerment
A 17 year old kid doesn't need a margarita!. if they want to feel like the adults, get the non alcoholic versions for them!. They are readily available

Not only will you NOT go to jail, since as your children in most states and countries you have an incontrovertible right to give them alcohol, it is actually a very good idea for them to practice responsible drinking with you around to guide them!.
As for what they are drinking, try to keep tabs on how much they are consuming in terms of total drinks (approx!. 1!.5 oz!. of liquor in a mixed drink, 12 oz!. of beer, or 6 oz!. of wine per drink)!.
You are uniquely situated to show them that alcohol is not something to be revered, but to be respected and enjoyed in moderation!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

I don't think you need to ask that question, all the teenagers are going to say sure why not, and all the adults will say no, maybe on special occasions!. So I am one of those adults that will tell you no, why it lets them think it is ok when they are away from home, mom and dad let me why not at a friends house!. Secondly you can get in big trouble for serving teens even if they are your kids!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
NO!. Punish them!. When they say the other kids did it tell them the other kids aren't your kids so you can't punish them!. When they say that isn't fair tell them welcome to life!. If this was about having a small glass of wine on New Years at midnight it would be another topic!. Although my Grandpa was Italian so that's probably more of why I was allowed(and I was 16 and that was all I was allowed to drink)!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
well i am a teenager and you know what my parents let me drink at the house they new i was gonna do it anyway and if i was gonna do it they wanted me to be safe and know where i was im not saying u should do it but they r gonna do it anyway question is do u want to know they are safe just dont make a habbit of it!!!!!!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com
they want to do it because they seen other kids doing it!?
oh, the peer pressure, the fitting in!.
if there was another reason such as curiosity, then i'da let them try it!.!. but that's a lame reason!.
maybe it's time for them to get back to cracking with their duties and homework!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
