Is it legal for a parent to let their underage child drink at home?

As someone who has been at many party's while drunk and underage I'll share my experience. My family and weirdly enough my English teacher (she said this to everyone) always said if you ever are in a situation where you need a ride call and we'll come get you. There will be no questions asked and no punishments.

I actually always stayed over at a friend's house or got rides with sober friends so I never actually came home on any of those nights but I think the no questions asked, no punishments, no lectures approach is best because I can guarantee if you punished or lectured your child for this incident if they were ever in need of a ride again they would not even consider calling you and could end up dead or raped.

If she's underage but in college, I wouldn't punish her at all, we would just have a conversation about the dangers of drinking in college but that I was glad she felt she could call me...if she is still in high school and I knew she was at the party, she wouldn't be in as much trouble than if she had snuck out. We would have a very, very, long discussion the next morning. I would begin the conversation about how proud I was of her for making the right decision in calling me, that takes a lot of guts to do when she could have done so many other things (drive drunk, call to say she's sleeping over, having a sober friend drive her home in her car and have her sleep over).

We would then discuss together where to go from there.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
