Actually, current Texas law contains very specific provisions that allow a minor to drink at any age under parental supervision. See pertinent Texas codes below: 106.04 Consumption of Alcohol by a Minor

(a-b) A minor commits an offense if they consume alcohol unless they are in the visible presence of, and have the consent of their adult parent, legal guardian, or spouse.

(c) An offense under this section is punishable as provided by 106.071.

(d) A minor who commits an offense under this section and who has been previously convicted of offenses under this section is not eligible for deferred disposition. 106.05 Possession of Alcohol by a Minor

(a) A minor commits an offense if they posses an alcoholic beverage.

(b) A minor may possess an alcoholic beverage:

� while in the course and scope of the minor's employment if the minor is an employee of a licensee or permitted and the employment is not prohibited by this code

� if the minor is in the visible presence of his adult parent, guardian, or spouse, or other adult to whom the minor has been committed by a court

� if the minor is under the immediate supervision of a commissioned peace officer engaged in enforcing the provisions of this code. 106.06 Purchase / Furnishing of Alcohol to a Minor

(a) A person commits an offense if they provide an alcoholic beverage to a minor.

(b) An alcoholic beverage may be provided to a minor by that minor's adult parent, legal guardian, or spouse if they are visibly present when the minor possesses or consumes the alcoholic beverage.
