What you say in this article might be true, but its not the beer companies fault if minors drink alcohol its our local stores who sell to the minors. Also parents are to blame as well. Kids should have more common sense than to drink and drive. Blame our community stores not the beer company itself

It's the store's fault that young people want to buy beer? I don't think so. Unless I'm only one of a few who remembers my wild and younger days, I would say no one force me to WANT beer but there were plenty of reasons I didn't GET beer. First was the deep fear of my parents and the beating they would give. Second was the fear of my siblings ratting on me so they could "enjoy" the beating I would get. Third was just the fear of some law official taking me to my parents so they could watch me get a beat down. And last, someone telling anyone in my community or church so that my parents could find out and watch me get a beat down right there on the church grounds. Parents may never stop the desire from coming but they can put the FEAR in them not to TRY.

Very well said Kevin! If more parents would CARE about and teach their children there would be fewer problems. In todays society, parents want to be their kids friend instead of the responsible parent. Kids need parents. They need guidelines.Today everything is chalked up to "teen rebellion". In the bible they stoned a kid for being disrespectful to their parent. Today you get locked up for disiplining your teen. No it is not the beer company's fault.Its kinda like its not the gas company's fault. Everybody's trying to make a living and the only way a product succeeds is if people buy it, and they do. No matter how high the price goes or how far away the nearest beer store is! And another thing, Children learn what they live, maybe we should all take a look at how we're living.
