As graduating teens flow out of high schools across North Dakota this month, many families will host open house events where loved ones and friends will gather to congratulate the giddy graduates. It is a time for celebration, the beginning of a new stage in life.
Several of these open house celebrations will likely include alcohol; alcohol that will be supplied by the graduates’ families and which may or may not be available to the teenage guest of honor.
