[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She seems a bit aggressive about it.  But I'm curious if everyone is ok if a mom hosting a sleepover has a glass or two of wine?  I never drink if DC has a friend over, even if sometimes they drive me nuts and I need that drink![/quote]

You're either joking about drinking (which isn't funny), or you're serious about needing a drink (which is sad).

See how we've normalized mommy wine culture? [/quote]

Agree. One glass with dinner, I'd be okay with. Posting "It's wine o'clock" and "Mommy needs her 'Mommy Juice'" on Facebook every other day would get the same "No" response as this would.[/quote]

+1 it’s the behavior, not the substance that bothers me. I would not let my child sleep over at a home where the parent in charge is very vocal about needing a substance (whether it alcohol or pot) to “cope” with children. I’d expect a parent to stay sober during a sleepover when they’re in charge of other people’s children. What happens if there is an emergency and they need to drive?[/quote]
