The comment I replied to specifically said "ban children from drinking", not purchase alcohol.

For instance here in the UK it's legal for any child over 5 to drink in private.

Yeah, but that pedantry did not add much. Yes, we do not ban children from drinking but there are still limits on their ability to buy and consume. A responsible adult needs to be present when children consume alcohol in many countries.

Present? Or just buy it originally.

There are no laws similar to gun safes requiring alcohol safes.
