do parents count the amount of drinks in the house?

Question

hey i want to experiment with drinking and see if i can take down a few beers, or maybe even 1. I have like 30 in my house in different refridgerators...but do you thinks my parents count and keep track of these? should i take 1? (im not asking for u to say DONT DRINK)

Answer 1

I keep track of how many I have...
I wouldn't risk it!

Answer 2

I'm from Europe the rules here are different, there is no age limit on consumption but most kids don't really drink even though they can.

First of all know that you will not like the taste of beer it's bitter, sweet red wine is better, fruit and alcohol cocktails (like strawberry daiquiri) the best.

Do not drink more than one beer the first time and do not drink at all if under 15.

I would let my parents know I want to experiment and ask if I could have a beer or a glass of wine with them Sunday at lunch. You are going to do it sooner or later and I would prefer my kid to drink with me in my house rather than with who knows who and who knows where.

Whatever you decide do not overdo it, being drunk isn't fun (you get really dizzy, you throw up, you feel terrible) but if you start feeling bad drink lots of water and later coke. Different people have different alcohol tolerance and you don't know yours yet.

Finally never drink just to get wasted and comatose, find a drink you like, be moderate and savour it. Learn to understand the threshold between being happy and being drunk and stop in time. Do not get into stupid drinking contests with your friends, always drink on a full stomach and remember that a six-pack is to be consumed during a whole day if at all and not during an hour.

Answer 3

Absolutely - and as a parent I will let you know you can't hide a "sneak". You will not be able to "handle" the alcohol since you do not have regular access. Consider this - if you drink 1 beer at most any age it effects your perception and reduces your inhibition, making you far more likely to rat yourself out. This happens to people over 21 so it will surely happen to a minor and much quicker. Be smart wait until you can drink legally and let your parents know where you are going and that you'll call for a cab to get home. Good Luck!

uhm well my friend takes from their house all the time like six at a time and he never got caught . I really dont know parents that trust their kids that actually count. If your parents are laid back and trust you most likely you will get away with it. But do it with a friend somewhere not at your house. Im not sayin go crazy and take twenty or anythign like that but one will not do that much, depending on age size and weight. I would say be safe though and have a friend take it from their house. Or if they have liquour or something like that, it would be less noticeable because they wont remember exactly how much is left KEEP IN MIND I AM NOT ADVISING YOU TO DRINK UNDERAGE, ITS REALLY NOTHIGN TO BE PROUD OF

Answer 5

If you just want to try one and not get drunk, youll probably get away with it.
Be sure to count how many are together in the fridge too. If there were 12, you can assume your parents would know if its gone because they bought a 12 pack.

Also consider how often they drink... if a few go by and theyre occasional drinkers. theyre more likely to find out. If you want to swipe enough to get drunk, you should wait for a party when theyd ave no idea how many beers were drinken.

Answer 6

every parent is different. one way would be when they are actually drinking try to slip one away most people when they are drinking dont count until they are done for the night. so if you took one then, they would think they drank it. either that or do it when theyve gone to bed and place the bottle in the trash where theirs are. my parents use to put lines on the liquor bottles to mark it. so be careful . another thing, beer isnt that great. im 25 and ive just started to like it in the last year.

Answer 7

No... us parents are too stupid to know if our kids are drinking. We never notice when any of our beer, wine or other spirits go missing. Heck... add water so no one notices that anything is missing.

If you're too stupid to figure out that we really do know, then your parents have really failed. YOU know the legal drinking age. But hey... you don't care if they end up in jail because of your stupidity and then you end up in juvie or foster care... where NO ONE GIVES A FLYING FIG ABOUT YOU.

So yeah.... go ahead and drink. We'll stand back, watch and laugh our butts off at you as you lose EVERYTHING your parents have worked hard for.

Answer 8

Even when I got completly trashed, I still remembered how many were left in the morning. They will notice, it's hard not to.

Suppose you took 1. Would you let it chill around with you and then once you're pretty sure they didn't notice then drink it or would you give it back unopened if they were like, "you stoled me beers".

Answer 9

Although I don't support your decision to try drinking (warning, if it smells bad, it probably doesn't taste too good!), it's up to the parents whether they count or not. If they trust you, they probably wouldn't count; if they have a reason not too, they probably keep them locked up and count. Another warning, even if they can't tell by the drinks, they may be able to tell by how you're acting.

Answer 10

Really take it from me wait til you turn 21 to drink. I use to pound them down in High School. Yeah a lot of things I'm not proud of. Oh and anyone who drinks keep track of how many they have.

Answer 11

how old are you? alcohol is usually something that the adults would keep track of because it is pretty expensive and they know there are minors in the house. I guess if you near the legal age or a year younger then its ok. but think of what your parents would say if they found out. so avoid risk. but it's completely up to you bud. good luck
