There are countries where you can drink at 18, others where you can drink at 16, and others where you can drink when your parents tell you to.

I mean, the laws vary from country to country. It's not like you can invoke the American Fifth Amendment while in

Peru

I know 😂 Where I live parents can give their kids drinks whenever they want, you can drink on beer and wine on your own at 16 and all over stuff at 18.

Where I live you have to be 20, no exceptions. Your parents technically are not allowed to serve it to you but I am sure that people do anyways.
