Would you let your kid have a sip of beer at a baseball game?

Question

Is that an American traditon?

Answer 1

at the insane prices they charge now a days h**l no maybe at home let them kill the corner when im done

Answer 2

Nope.

Answer 3

no i def wouldn't

Answer 4

Tradition notwithstanding, the bottom line is this:

Is it worth the small pleasure your kid might get from it to risk the following:

being arrested for serving alcohol to a minor

losing custody of your child

having a record of child abuse for life

These, too, are American 'traditions'...  

Answer 5

Answer 6

At $8 for a lousy cup of Budweiser at a professional baseball game, I wouldn't give ANYONE a sip!

Answer 7

it defantly isnt a american tradition and you shouldnt it is very bad for him

Answer 8

No way, my kid is 29 and would down the whole thing before I got it back

Answer 9

Nope --- at home, maybe ok.  In a public venue, in most states it would be a chargable offense, "contributing to the delinquency of a minor"  just your luck you would end up on the jumbotron giving junior a swig..... in comes security, and you'd lose the last of your $8 beer and your $40 ticket, and a heckuva lawyer bill to get you out of it.  

Stick with a $6 corndog or a $10 bowl of nachos...

Answer 10

I wouldn't say it's an American Tradition, but I personally would have no problem giving my child a sip of beer. Chances are they're going to hate it anyway.
