Is it true that teens can drink under adult supervision?
The laws vary from place to place. In a few states, children are allowed to have alcohol under the supervision of their parents, not any other adult. There are still age limits in effect and the exceptions are very limited. Any adults giving alcohol to a minor can go to jail and or have a fine. And the 'adult' supervision can get arrested as well - and charged with various things including 'contributing to the delinquency of a minor,' 'providing alcohol to a minor,' etc.
