So I'm not swinging one way or the other but I'm curious about others' opinions on the subject. My parents let me drink at home under the impression that it's better for me to do it in a setting where I'm safe than go out somewhere and get drunk. What do you think about this? Part of me thinks, well if kids and their friends want to drink and you say no then there is a greater chance of them doing it somewhere else where they might not be as safe? But then another side of me thinks, well it's against the law and not healthy to have teenagers drinking anyways. What do you think about this? Do you think it's okay for parents to let their kids (say age 17 or so) to drink at home with some friends if everyone is required to stay in the house and all keys are taken away and they are supervised?
