Reply To: teenagers drinking on purim

Our Torah gives us a guide for life.
IMHO It’s healthy to get drunk once or twice a year.
I was once discussing it with a nonfrum person.
Unfortunately, in his world getting drunk is a regular occasion.
He was surprised (in a good way) that our Torah gives us once or twice (purim and simchas torah) a year to get drunk- and it’s healthy.
Growing up my brothers always got drunk on purim. Now my husband gets drunk.
I get to see him in a different light.
I’m not talking about underage teens though. I wouldn’t give my opinion on that.
