[quote=Anonymous]I think that alcohol should be made mandatory at every child's party.  There needs to be a law passed to this effect. With proper enforcement (availability and not consumption).  That one glass of wine while toddlers team around like out of control human rodeo race is great.

Spin off: maybe that's what all those people complaining about a lack of RSVPs are missing.

Indeed, the new "mandatory grog and children's party" law should also address some emerging nutritional deficiencies  too.  Run with your carrots and gorgeous looking fruit kebabs.  But it's also important to integrate chips, pizza with suspicious looking synthetic cheese and small high-saturated-fat COSTCO savouries. I don't care whether the kids eat them but it's a PARTY! not a slippery slope towards obesity.

I don't drink all that much and I don't drink and drive.  But I absolutely cannot stand those sanctimonious, prohibition-hung-over, uptight idiots who act like a glass of something with alcohol in it represents some huge moral failing or an inevitable path to alcoholism.  It's judgemental, immature and stinks of 'tea-partyesque' "I'm more socially adequate than you because I abstain BS..."

I don't think I would be such a good mom without my wine/whine buddies who are totally comfortable sharing the up-and-down experiences of motherhood over kiddy-dinners, spontaneous front-step gatherings and a non-judgemental attitude.  The only problem we have is someone that has a problem with seeing us sitting in the sun with a Riesling while the kids get to play right there without someone hovering..     [/quote]
