Maybe Focus on the Family has a reason to be concerned about drinking and children. Perhaps people should hear what The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University (CASA) has to report.

The press release in your link is actually a correction. The Center based a recent study on a flawed household sample that resulted in the estimate for underaged drinkers being doubled from 11% to 25%. The latter was the figure hyped by the media nationwide. Of course, the correction received almost no coverage.
