This was only implemented as a law recently (last year or later), at
least in New Jersey.
I guess it was a little known fact that kids could drink on private
property legally (I wish I had known). 

I do recall some parties where there was A LOT of drinking going on, and
the police only bothered the kids on the sidewalk, and then only if the
beer wasn't in a brown paper bag.  

There was also a little known statute that minor driving violations(not
DWI) could be negotiated down.  If you could sweet talk the cop into it,
it was no points and no moving violation.  This too was repealed last
year.

If only I knew then, what I know now...
