I didn't drink in college until I was 21. Just a data point.

If you can go fight a war and to vote, you should be allowed to have a beer.

So yes I would do this.

Beer and wine are healthier than coke

Lol they're drinking behind your back too.


But, to answer OP's question as long as they are in your house and not servng other underage not related to you, you are probably fine in most states.

I doubt you would call any college age kid a "child" in real life...we're talking about 18-21 here...

18-20 is not a kid. I don't think they should be lumped in with "kids".

So my kid can learn that getting buzzed isn't the only/best reason to drink alcohol. Frankly I'd rather my 20 yo kid drank a beer than a regular coke.

Most likely, in my presence or with specified family members I trust in our own property or rented accommodation regardless of legalities, although I would only admit that anonymously.


In Maryland, a parent can serve their child in their home. (Not in another home or other kids.)

At nice dinners, I plan to serve my (now small) children a glass of wine/champagne, so long as I consider them mature enough, starting at 16-18.

If your at home or on vacation and there's NO chance of your college age kids (under 21) driving, would you ever allow them to have a beer, glass of wine or such? I'm just talking a single drink, not getting drunk.
