COMMENTS: Hospitality Prohibited
Do you like to give a teenager a glass of wine over dinner? Such sharing is quite common, ABC's Sharyn Alfonsi told us, "forget fake IDs." Many underage drinkers are served alcohol by family members or adult friends rather than obtaining booze illicitly. On occasions, adult-supervised parties have led to drunk driving accidents by their teenage guests. As a consequence 24 states have so-called Social Host Laws that make it a crime for adults to serve a drink to a teenager in their own home. Adults have a right to bear arms, apparently, but no right to arm a teen with a beer.
