[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're not quite there yet but probably once the son goes off to college (he's a HS junior now). We're parents of friends who have let their kids drink since 16 on camping trips. One of my son's childhood friends- not close anymore- has been going to bars with his parents since 14. Here's a little wrinkle to throw you DC folks in a tizzy- in Wisconsin it is legal for a tavern to serve alcohol to a minor with a parent present and consenting. Chew on that one. [/quote] I posted earlier that I thought 16ish was fine...and I'm from Wisconsin. I was a bartender at age 18 - and the "house" expert on microbrews by 19, so really by the time I was legal, there was no mystery to alcohol for me. Also, this was only about 15 years ago, and it was the norm for high school kids to go to taverns with their parents. Freshman year in college seemed to be the unofficial drinking age for most of WI anyway. [/quote]
