For some odd reason, some parents think their children are just minature adults.
THEY'RE CHILDREN, IDIOTS!
That means they have not developed the social and moral restraints that age and experience bring.
I have no problem with kids having a glass of wine with dinner (they do it in Europe all the time), but to turn a group of teenagers loose with kegs of beer and no supervision,
WTF WERE THESE WOMEN THINKING???
So to answer your questions LD, parents are the moderator for children until they can develop their own internal moderation. That means gradually exposing them to the adult world, but in such a way that they won't get hurt by it.
The occasional drink? OK
Selling? No, that is why there are parents.
