You are not responsible if you do not know and you do not provide it (although there could be an issue if you were acting irresponsible in some way.). If a person is under 21, then there is zero tolerance. If they are 21 or older, then they can legally possess and drink alcohol. If you become aware of underage drinking in your home, you should notify the family of those who participated and put a stop to the behavior - completely.
