[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I think this is drawing a severely disproportionate amount of teetotalers to this question. FWIW we have a ton of booze in the house for 2 adults and we aren't even huge drinkers but we both like trying specialty cocktails so we seem to have a lot of random bottles where you need 1/2 ounce of like 3 kinds of rum or liqueurs or whatever mixed in so it will literally take forever to go through those. We both enjoy wine so we have a rack of wines semi-stocked at most times and a fridge with some seasonal beers in it most of the time.  We only drink a couple of drinks each 1 or day days a week at most (we have friends who drink WAY more and I still consider all of them social drinkers, none of them have issues, etc.). My own whole family has wine with dinner, its just what they grew up with in Italy and Spain. It never occurred to me that  daily drink was some sort of moral issue?[/quote]

OP, same.  We have alcohol in the house because we drink beer/wine on occasion.  We don't normally make mixed drinks but we have a bunch of liquor that someone gave us or we used for something and still have it.  That stuff doesn't go bad so we keep it and it accumulates.  It has never occurred to me until reading this thread that I would need to store it specially.

My parents were the same way, there was no more attention paid to storing alcohol than for other food/drink in the house.  As a teen, it never occurred to me to touch it.  [/quote]

PP you are quoting and same situation. I agree with PPs saying if there is a strong addiction thread in a family that it is a different story. That said I know people who haven't had alcohol in decades who live with people who drink occasional wine, and it is in their house without issue- so even that is dependent on the person.[/quote]
