10 year old drinking beer
 

Last night there was a 10 year old boy out on the front street with 8 cans of beer that he had stolen from his dad..I dont know where his dad was but he didnt seem to notice.

I can kinda understand teenagers getting away with it, drinking at friends etc but a 10 year old?? Its ridiculous!
Do parents not understand that it can be toxic to young children and damage his liver for the rest of his life?

Tyler is 6 and when i have alcohol in the house it is on the top of the kitchen cupboard where he cant reach it.

Isn't it the trate today, some parents don't give a stuff where there kids are or what they are doing, so long as they're not under their feet.

Are you sure he stole them and wasn't given them by his father as he kicked him out the house for peace and quiet?

There is a hidden message here:

Ok it is sad that the ten year hold manage to access the beer. but is also very sad that our society glorifies alcohol so much that he wants to

Re: 10 year old drinking beer
 

He probably wants to, cuz his parents probably drink it all the time, my kids dont want it, thats cuz i dont have it ...much:rolleyes:
