Some men in my shul were giving boys – 13 years old – including my son – glasses of wine and whiskey. WHY???? Now I admit, kids this age don’t seem to have the same simcha as a bochur who is a little bit older, but still, one of the kids got drunk and threw up in his house. Why does his mother have to deal with that? It’s surely not Purim. Sorry, Zeeskite, I don’t think this has anything to do with the normal ones getting drunk so that they don’t feel left out. It’s just fun dancing and enjoying oneself. At least that’s my opinion.
