> How much personal responsibility should we expect children to have?

This is what parents are for.

In that case, maybe we don’t need to card people anymore at the liquor store. If underage kids happen to buy, that’s the parents’ fault.
That's probably a good idea. That law never really did anything anyway, kids have never had problems getting their hands on alcohol
This is what the whole society is for, why singling out this aspect of behavior?

Education? Safety? Environment? Justice? Is this not also, then, what parents are for?
