this is just wrong
I went to my friends party tonight, and everyone was drunk. Her 10 year old brother was wondering around the whole night, and then disappeared.
He came back over 2 hours later and was off his face, he was drunk. some guys in my year at school had fed him scotch and coke and made this 10 year old so drunk he could hardly string words together.
He came and sat next to me at the table and I gave him a quick glance not realising how drunk he was. I was talking to my friend, and then he just collapsed onto me. He was leaning on me because he could hardly keep upright.
I sat there with this kid leaning against me for almost an hour and we got him some water to help wake him up. He finally woke up very confused and asked to be taken to bed. So I picked him up and took him to his room. I tucked him in and got a bucket for next to his bed incase he throws up in the night.
WHO THE F*** feeds a 10 year old boy SCOTCH ? If I find them I will castrate them with a spoon.

Your friend, whose brother it was, deserves a whupping too for not looking after her brother properly.
She should have been forced to sit by her brother's side all night to make sure he did not vomit in his sleep and drown in the stuff. If I'd been there, I sure as hell would have done so, on threat of calling the social services if she refused. Then I'd done so anyway the day after of course.

If we get away from the "I'll beat the crap out of the twat who fed him booze" for a second, we might see the wood from the trees.
Facts known: he was drunk. It was a party. Drink was available. Besides it only takes a couple of shots to get a 10 year old plastered.
Facts not known: that anyone fed him booze: heck as a 10 year old I would have taken it for myself. He was poorly supervised is all.
Social services and kids do not mix. Bad threat. A children's home is the next step. By no means all are good places.
The lad needs love is all. Unconditional love. Remember, when tucking a drunk perosn into bed: Use the RECOVERY POSITION. Drowning in your own puke must be an awful way to die.
This is written as a father. One who made sure hsi son understood alcohol. And yes, one who allowed his 5,6,7 etc year old son reasoanbale quantities of supervised alcohol.

After all, he was at home. I would have snuck it myself, too.
I also liked the bucket idea. Very useful in a couple of situations with my own plastered friends and loved ones!
What IS the "recovery position", anyhow?

With grateful thanks to drugsinfofile.com from where the picture is linked, and doubtless whose copyright this picture is:
This ensures a clear airway, gives a path for vomit to fall away, and is a stable and safe position

Sorry folks, I am 100% in agreement with Timmy.
And, since no parent is ever perfect. No child is ever perfect.
I don't think we should be critical of a parent unless they are clearly abusing a child. This is a matter of opinion, It is up to you to raise your children differently if you see fit.
I am not qualified to make that choice for another persons child.
I think timmy has it right on. Says it better than I can.

Moderated, with proper parental supervision, it is acceptable to give small amounts.
If the child was fed the liquor by some other person for the sake of "let's see how f*@Ked up we can get this kid" then it is nothing short of criminal and should be treated as an assault with malicious intent.
The child could have been seriously harmed. Alcohol poisioning is nothing to be taken lightly. Nor is it a right of passage.

At what point does stupidity turn into malicious intent?
No-one has said that alcohol poisoning is to be taken lightly. Nor that a drunk child is not something to be taken seriously.
We are looking at balancing the real harm that stupidity/malice can do against the potential to harm a family with social welfare people, or the harm that wreaking violence on the person (if any) who gave booze to the kid can do.
In addition, no-one has said "Ah, but what if it had been cocaine?" Frankly, if it had been an illegal substance I would already have called the police. But that is because I do not tolerate illegal substances, especially available to kids.

At the point where a stupid idea becomes a stupid action.

In my life I have often been stupid, had stupid ideas and performed stupid actions. I have also performed malicious actions.
I am sure you have done the same.
You seem to be bent on making a point in a confrontational manner. I am not yet sure what that point is. But i do ask you to ameliorate your manner. Normally we do not thrive on confrontation here.

When the object of the "stupidity" is a child, that is where the line is crossed.

Is dilution of the original post, really.
I mean it's no skin off my nose, or anything. It just seems rather strange.
Still, "taking more water with it" is an old and tried solution to being drunk.
Perhaps it's the cultural difference between Europe and the USA here. We never had prohibition, and we gave the USA the Pilgrim fathers because we certainly didn't want them. We have a substantially more relaxed view of alcohol than the USA.

Drunk 10 year old 
Looks like a handy position for other things, too! 
Not ever with a drunk boy. Especially never.
