How much alcohol for a 15 year old?

[Dramatic]

If your 15 year old was going to a party (supervised by parents at the house) how much alcohol would you allow them to take with them?

Definitely none! Why would adults allow this, what's the point of supervision if they are to drink.

None. They are underage and you dont need to encourage it.

Alcohol is also a drug, just a legal one. The worst thing is that at that age they like the sweet tasting strong ones like Sprite with miles. The girl's parents sound pretty irresponsible if they are happy with so much alcohol at a 16 year old's birthday . We know they all try it, but encouraging it is another story

Please show us any that supports the benefits of alcohol for children.

None. Yes they will drink at 15 - but it's a rite of passage that parents don't really know about it! 😂😂

Sorry dont know how to edit. I meant to say that kids like the strong sweet tasting ones like spirits with mixers.

Exactly this. They do it, we did it, but the parents didnt "know" about it. If the host parents are allowing anything other than weak beer or weak cider they are not responsable. Even with that there will be a few kids vomiting afterwards

I'm surprised that the birthday girl's parents are allowing guests to bring alcohol. That's a recipe for disaster. At least if they were providing the cider/beer they could control it. They are inviting the guests to slip spirits into their pockets & bags. At 15 your child should not be drinking away from your supervision. We don't want to read of a 16th birthday party where the house was trashed and several children were taken to A&E for stomach pumping.

Lol. PP is perfectly true.

Agree with above post. You have a sneaky cider but make sure you look sober when you come in. Parents aren’t daft but are happy you’re okay. This situation is insane ‘bring your own booze’ to a 16 party with full parental consent.
I had a friend whose dad (divorced) owned a restaurant. He gave four of us a bottle of moet to drink in the flat upstairs for her twelfth birthday. (yes 12th) We were practically hallucinating on one and a bit glasses each.

she turned into an alcoholic, ended up in rehab several times.

Ive not got a great relationship with it either.

don’t give young brains booze.

2 bottles

What you're saying about alcohol being harmless is simply untrue.

It is also known that kids who don't drink early are less likely to binge drink.

Pretty much everything you've written is incorrect!

Oh please. That's just narrow-minded. Wake up!

My own DC told me about a girl they knew at 6th form. She was Irish, had very lax parents. All her fun was about drinking and that's all she looked forward too. Had early signs of liver damage at 17, but didn't care.

But nothing in this suggests this is a random party. It is being supervised by another parent. If you don't trust them, then clearly, your child stays home!

You're twisting what i said.

I merely said that in moderation it doesn't do any significant harm.

Well clearly we read from different sources. Either way, we bring our kids up in the best way we can. Mine were both allowed to have alcohol before the magical age of 18, and both grew up to appreciate the positive side of drinking alcohol and thankfully continued to moderate it.
No point in disagreeing any more, as we are unlikely to see eye to eye.

And if you abstain from it completely it doesn't do you any damage. No need to willingly consume a poison and and intoxicate yourself because "it feels good".

My mum bought me four Babyshams or a could of Two-dogs!

Hahaha, and sustain from those delicious meals with the red content warnings, or stop driving a car, or riding a bike. HAZARDOUS! I suspect you live a somewhat sedate life!
Good luck 👍

You are repeatedly posting incorrect information, you can't ask people not to respond.

You gave your kids alcohol, that's your choice.

But all the research says the same - the less a person drinks, the better. The older they are before they first drink, the better.

It's a party. The parents will probably be upstairs and maybe pop in from time to time. I wouldnt be too happy about it.

no, that is what all the research shows - look it up

Oh dear oh dear. YES, I KNOW drinking nothing is 'better' than drinking regularly (and that goes for all ages), but the harm to a teenager of 15 is insignificant and that's a fact.
The very first Google AI search brought this up, so I'll not bother looking further.
Counter all you wish, but this is from a creditable source and pretty much directly responds to the OP.

So how do you know that? Big disrespectful assumptions. If you don't trust the parents, your kid doesn't go; simple!
