This makes it sound like sober parents are the problem, for not teaching our kids how to drink! That’s kind of a sorry state of affairs; sobriety is a great thing to model to kids, in my opinion. It’s true that my kids are not seeing an example of “drinking in moderation,” and it bugs me that college is such a boozy environment that I’ve got to try to prepare them ahead of time just to attempt keep them safe, which I can’t really do since to some extent it’s just chance as to who asphyxiates and dies of alcohol poisoning. 
That is a great idea! I agree, I think most kids would choose beer if it was the legal choice. And yes it’s a lot safer.
I would support having adult supervisors at all these parties. Why are all these young people just going wild with alcohol they obviously can’t handle and then causing all these problems? The majority of sexual assaults on campus are related to alcohol. Period. Blame whomever you want, but if people were handling their liquor, most of these events simply would not happen. So if these kids need to be babysat, or they need to drink beer only, or they need to be taught how to drink properly…ok! Whatever needs to happen, needs to happen. Because the problem is directly related to alcohol and what is happening now is not working.
