To: Know your rights

Abusive levels of alcohol use is criminal under almost all situations.

Even home with kids you are the caretaker for a minor and may not be drunk without a sober acceptable adult under the same roof for the minor.

If not consumed in abusive levels, alcohol can be good for you and it's properties as a food purifier legendary and even Biblical.

That false generalization is not made true by the narrow case you present below.

Even home with kids you are the caretaker for a minor and may not be drunk

"Abusive levels of alcohol use is criminal under almost all situations."

It is the abuse that is illegal.

"Even home with kids you are the caretaker for a minor and may not be drunk without a sober acceptable adult under the same roof for the minor."

How does being drunk relate to "abuse"? What is your standard for drunkenness?

"If not consumed in abusive levels, alcohol can be good for you and it's properties as a food purifier legendary and even Biblical."

The same argument is as valid for other substances, those of which you default to the state to define as good or bad. Why do you turn to the bible for alcohol, and the state for other substances?
