A contract is generally not voidable because it was entered while a party was intoxicated. In order for you to qualify for incapacity, you would need to be intoxicated to there point where you could not remember any of the events surrounding the contract and you would need to be able to prove that you were that intoxicated. Its extremely difficult to prove the state of intoxication needed to make a contract voidable.

Can an individual be held legally responsible for debts that occured when they were a minor?

An obligation to pay a debt is usually by contract. A contract by a minor is "voidable" meaning that it can be invalidated. However, it is not void. The difference is sometimes important because if a contract is void then someone could never be held accountable. A contract by a minor however, may later be ratified (acknowledged as valid) by that invididual. Ratifying the contract then makes the person legally responsible. If the person who signed the contract as minor does not want to be held legally responsible, he or she must formally rebuke that contract.

The execution date is when a contract or agreement is signed by the parties involved, while the effective date is when the terms and obligations outlined in the contract become enforceable or go into effect.
