Nope, I don't drink. I think that drinking alcohol is one of the biggest perils in our society and will very much be brainwashing my kids about the evils of it. Don't have to worry about it with Jessalyn or it will kill her liver.
Smart cookie!

I was allowed to drink form the age of 12, my mother would pour me a glass of wine and sit and drink and smoke, and smoke pot "With Me", so I dont believe that crap about, if we dont allow them then they will binge and rebel. I drank myself stupid because I "Was" allowed. I was treated like an adult and given it because mum let me, it made me worse, it made me think I was a adult and so therefore encouraged me to do adult things, if she had taught me alchol was for adults and that there was a "Legal" barrier for under 18's, then I would not have done half the things I did. Kids need to learn there are rules not only in ones home but in there country too and they must obey them. I dont think confusing them with, well its not legal yet but hey, go ahead one glass wont hurt. Give them the taste then tell them they can only do it in bits till they turn 18. For us we wont encourage it and we will teach them what it does to ones body, hopefully they will continue to use the wonderful healthy brain they have now and say NO , or at least till they are of "Legal Age".

Oh well each to there own I guess.

My kids hate the stuff so I am so lucky.
