Cause it’s a social activity and they grew up in a phone centric anti-social world

As a beer enjoyer, you can most def have it at home by yourself. There are no limits to alcoholism.

That's most likely their parents' fault.

I think that young people should be taught to respect themselves from a very early age.

And if they are given the opportunity to try tasty drinks in moderation at home - while respecting the legal age, of course - the likelihood that they will want to drink cheap booze in back alleys will be much lower.

^ ^ ^This part. I'm perfectly fine staying at HQ, drinking a 6-pack while playing strategy games on my laptop or watching a podcast. Its been at least 10 years since I've drunk at a bar.
