[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I come from a military family where we lived in Europe starting when I was 12. I was served wine at dinners with Italian and other foreign officers....not a lot..but a small glass. It taught me to what sort of wines I liked and I learned how to pair wines with food. I then went on to live  in Belgium for four years and learned about beer. These have been life skills for me going forward. I will certainly teaching my children about wine and beer. [/quote]

Side note: did you live at SHAPE? I've met some people who lived there as teens (15+ years ago) and they said it was wild! [/quote]

No, I went to college in Belgium so I never had the taboo drinking thinking. I actually never brings drank until I got back to the US in my 20s. The people who say it was wild ate probably exaggerating. We had more freedom in some ways but if we got caught our parents go in trouble and we could get sent back to the US. You had to be a really bad kid to cross certain lines because it would hurt your parents career.[/quote]
