Exactly, I really wish I had drank a bit more before moving out. I would have made way less of a fool of myself once I did. Only bright side is we were all fools and amazingly I wasn’t the biggest one.
Comment on Cheers!

I didn’t learn about that law until my 21st birthday. To me having a glass of coniac especially on special occasions was pretty normal. We also had red wine with pasta, and martinis when my parents decided to break out the shaker. Oddly enough I don’t really drink alcohol outside of social settings now and even then I drink the same glass over the course of hours.

Who knew, you can establish a healthy relationship with alcohol with your kids if you don’t treat it like some Forbidden fruit.

Who knew drinking alcohol when the brain is still very much in development is totally healthy!!!
Oh wait

We’re talking a small glass of wine with a meal. We’re not handing them a bottle of Jack and going “chug chug chug!”

Yeah, my parents didn’t really let me have more than a glass and these events were weeks sometimes months apart. It was very much intended to foster a healthy relationship with alcohol at a young age.
Also in my household you didn’t offer to pour a glass for someone you just told let them help themselves if they wanted unlike things like lemonade or tea. I’ve noticed as a result less people tend to drink or drank less if you didn’t offer to get them a glass.
