I do think consumption is allowed with parental consent and presence.
Depends on the state. In California it's a misdemeanor for the parent.

That's a good point. I know the legal age is definitely for the purchase of alcohol, and there is such thing as minor in possession, but I do think consumption is allowed with parental consent and presence. Would it be legal to purchase in DC and then consume in Maryland? Interesting questions. It would be nice if we had reasonable laws about alcohol so we could instead focus on the real issues and stop wasting time with distractions.
At the end of the day, I don't care about any of this unless he was intentionally lying (which we'll of course never know).
