This would be great if the drinking age were 18. A person is an adult at 18 except for drinking alcohol. It does not make sense. I can not understand why we waste money enforcing the drinking age on adults that can legally join the military without parental consent.

maybe, if the lawmakers would quit being morons and lower the drinking age then there would be less underage drinking. i dont see how someone is allowed to go fight and die for this country at 18 but its illegal for that same 18 yr old to drink a beer. there are actually some responsible people in this world. not all teenagers are gonna get completely trashed and drive. most actually take keys away and stay at one place. i dont see how it is a crime at all if the parent is sitting here saying their child is allowed to drink it. IT IS A DRINK!!!!!!! whats next, are they gonna put a certain age that you can eat cake? it may have intoxicating effects but so do alot of other things. you can smoke at 18, and that is much more dangerous than drinking. it just baffles me how idiotic people are.

I am so glad they passed this law. Maybe now some of these “so called parents” will think twice before providing alcohol to minors. I will be the first to call the law, if I find out alcohol has been made available to a child of mine.

i like this–there’s noting for teen’s to do—this law exist in many other states already–yes it works–because most of the time (if not all the time) the parents usually the ones buying for the children or other adults–they should be charged with a crime–

I agree with this bill, to many parents make alcoholics out of their children
at 13 for thinking “Well they’re going to do it anyway so at least I know
they are safe with me”. NOT!
