That's why I said if she's with them. I wouldn't want them wandering around drunk but I'd be fine if they had some beers while sitting around

listening to music.

They're not 14 or 16, they're 18 and with an adult. It's fine with me.

I realise it's hard to tell from my post, but I generally agree with you. - mafic Jul 12, 07:55 7
- I do as well. They can vote or join the military but they can't have a beer. Makes sense. If they were in Canda it would be okay but because we - Krusty Jul 12, 08:02 6
  - It's against the law. She will go to jail if they get caught! JAIL! -- nm - Bacon Jul 12, 08:03 5
    - If she's worried about the law that's one thing. I was arguing that it's okay for 18 year old to drink w/an adult at a concert. - Krusty Jul 12, 08:07
    - this. whether you agree or not it is the LAW. -- nm - Beaker Jul 12, 08:04
    - but then... conjugal visits. that might be kind of hot. -- nm - mafic Jul 12, 08:03 1
      - white collar resort prison! -- nm - Roger More Jul 12, 08:06
    - I don't put my freedom in the hands of 3 18 year old girls that have been drinking -- nm - Bacon Jul 12, 08:03
So many things can go wrong and for what? To be the Cool Aunt? Are you going to tell their parents why they got pregnant? - Bacon Jul 12, 07:52 21
- Jeez. You're taking it pretty far. They're getting pregnant now? I just think it's okay if they have a few drink with an adult while they sit and - Krusty Jul 12, 07:54 20
  - Do you expect the 3 18-year olds to stay in the tent under supervision for 96 hours straight? -- nm - Strongbad Jul 12, 07:56 12
    - No but I expect the alcohol won't be available for them to drink whenever they want. I expect she'll be with them when they do have a drink. - Krusty Jul 12, 08:00 11
      - You are so clueless on this one. -- nm - Bacon Jul 12, 08:01 10
        
        and really. I am not trying to be mean. I just don't think you understand the 18 year old mind anymore. -- nm - Bacon Jul 12, 08:02 9
        
        I don't know 18 year olds but I still think it's fine for them to drink. If the parent knows the kids and feels they're responsible enough to drink - Krusty Jul 12, 08:03 7
        
        If anyone I knew gave alcohol to my underage kid in a place like that, we would go around. -- nm - Spawn Jul 12, 08:05
        
        I HIGHLY doubt that the parents would be aware that they are going to drink with a relative stranger. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 12, 08:04 5
        
        Right. they are putting the trust in your wife that she will be responsible. -- nm - Bacon Jul 12, 08:06
        
        Also, if they happen to wander, there will be tonnes of other tents with dudes looking to party. -- nm - Shaun Jul 12, 08:06
        
        Do you think they don't drink on the weekends sometimes or at parties? Isn't it better that this time there's an adult? -- nm - Krusty Jul 12, 08:05 2
        
        (surrounded by thousands of strangers, all around you while you sleep) -- nm - Spawn Jul 12, 08:07
        
        no, but it is not my problem then. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 12, 08:06
        
        You think it's their first time drinking? I mean, they're probably already pregnant by now!! -- nm - Guigue Jul 12, 08:03
  - Drunk dudes, now you are allowing them to drink. Hell I remember how I was at 18! Don't you? -- nm - Bacon Jul 12, 07:55 3
    - I do and I never raped anyone. I never forced myself on anyone. They're going to have a couple of drinks, not a keg party. -- nm - Krusty Jul 12, 07:58 1
      - And you honestly think they are going to be like good little girls and not wander off? Maybe she knows the niece well, but not her friends. - Spawn Jul 12, 08:00
    - and her nice is a very attractive 18 year old, and her friends are not bad either. - groiny Jul 12, 07:57
  - it isn't a completely unreasonable chain of logic to go from drinking to drunk to sex to pregnancy -- nm - oblique Jul 12, 07:55 2
    - It kind of is. They're not out by themselves being completely irresponsible. They're with an adult who most likely is responsible and not going to - Krusty Jul 12, 07:57 1
      - why NOT assume the worst is the more likely question and plan accordingly./ -- nm - Beaker Jul 12, 08:01
