Anyone know the Oklahoma laws regarding a parent allowing their minor child to consume alcohol...?

Question

in the home of the parent? Please site references if you have them available so I can research this topic further? I've been told that police won't do anything if the alcohol was provided by and consumed in the parent's home. That doesn't sound right to me, what do you think?

Answer 1

Selling/Furnishing Alcohol to Youth


All States have laws prohibiting the furnishing of alcoholic beverages to minors. There were 6 exceptions and 1 additional provision listed for this law. The following are the 6 exceptions:
Alcohol Furnished by Parent/Guardian
Alcohol Furnished by Legal Age Spouse
In Any Private Location
In Private Residence
In Parent/Guardian's Home Only
Other (Religious, Educational, Medical)
In addition there was a category called "Bases for Affirmative Defense" that contained the following provision under which a server could not be charged for serving alcohol to a minor:
Minor Not Charged - Provisions requiring that the Seller/licensee be exonerated of charges of furnishing alcohol to a minor unless the minor involved is charged.
(Previously, there was another base for affirmative defense, RBS training, but that is now treated as a separate law.)

With this single provision counted as an additional exception, there were a total of 7 exceptions.
The data for this law came from the NIAAA APIS (updated through 1/1/2005):
