And:
>Depending on the situation, one can be charged with a misdemeanor or a felony for supplying alcohol to minors. Most often, supplying alcohol to a minor is considered a misdemeanor offense, but in some jurisdictions, it may be considered a felony depending on the circumstances. Felonies for supplying minors with alcohol are typically charged when there is some type of accident or injury involved with the use of alcohol or the person supplying the alcohol has been convicted of repeated offenses. Typical penalties are outlined below.

- voxic11 7y agoMost states exempt parents from such laws. For example Massachusetts law says > For the purpose of this section the word ''furnish'' shall mean to knowingly or intentionally supply, give, or provide to or allow a person under 21 years of age except for the children and grandchildren of the person being charged to possess alcoholic beverages on premises or property owned or controlled by the person charged. https://malegislature.gov/Laws/GeneralLaws/PartI/TitleXX/Chapter138/Section34 https://malegislature.gov/Laws/GeneralLaws/PartI/TitleXX/Cha...
