Serving alcohol to minors is already a crime, but then allowing that person to then drive home or leave the premises unescorted is even more reckless behavior. All too often, underage drinking has tragic consequences for both the minor involved and innocent third parties.

Making Adults Take Responsibility for Reckless Behavior
Normally, property owners who serve alcohol to their guests are not responsible for the actions of those guests after they leave. However, property owners who host minors in their homes have special responsibilities for the safety of their underage guests and others.
Underage drinking is a major factor in car accidents and boating accidents. Adults who host children in their home have a responsibility to avoid these serious consequences.
If your child was served alcohol in someone else's home and got injured afterward as a result of intoxication, he or she may have a claim against the property owner. If you have been injured by an underage drinker, you may also have a claim against whoever served him or her.
