Why is anyone under the age of 21 having access to liquor anyways? It is against the law, the adults can get arrested, and this should not be news to any of us. The Adults should know better then to leave a table of whiskey, vodka and wine out for all to take. Why do the adults need such hard liquor, and such an abundance of wine for a kiddush? The children practice what is being preached to them, when they see their parents, older siblings, and rabbis, getting drunk. Where are the responsible adults in situations like this? Take away the alcohol, and tell the drunks to skedaddle! Don’t be another herd statistic, by just standing around witnessing this but not doing a thing, and thinking someone else will handle it.
