[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] One more question... do you allow your kids to drink alcohol at home (e.g. have a glass of wine during the holidays) and if yes, at what age? [/quote] This is the PP here, thanks for your nice words. They're only 9 and 7 now, so no drinking at home. We rarely drink so it's not around much. On the Jewish holidays they're both welcome to have a sip of our wine and they've had the occasional "try it" sip of someone's beer. They both hated every bit. I draw the line at letting them have a sip of my rare Bailey's on ice, though - it's way too delicious!! They'd be hooked in a second!! :-) It's really hard to walk the line of the "forbidden fruit" - seems like if you restrict it too much you glorify it and make it a prized thing, and the other way you turn your 14 year-old into a drunk. We'll just keep talking about it and hopefully they'll make it through this whole thing unscathed. It's hard to know what to do sometimes, isn't it??[/quote]
