[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, I'm not an alcoholic though.[/quote]

What's it like in your black and white world?[/quote]

It's great. I am capable of spending an hour walking my kid around the neighborhood and then enjoying a glass of wine at home, without needing to carry a little "mommy juice" around with me while I make a nice memory with my kid.

I'm sorry that you can't do normal parenting activities without alcohol. That sounds difficult.[/quote]

So your kids are so awful that you need to find solace in a glass of wine at the end of the night after spending an hour with them?  I am sorry you are such a bad parent that you can't take your kids ToTing without having to drink way your troubles with "mommy juice" at the end of the night.  [/quote]

I had the same thought!  She’s still drinking yet trying to frame it in a way that makes her look superior. Gave me a good chuckle. [/quote]

You both sound defensive. No one said drinking is wrong, but why do you need to drink WHILE trick or treating with your kids? What is so hard about walking around the neighborhood for a little while that you feel you need that?[/quote]

Multiple times the word “need.” Babe I don’t need alcohol, or coffee, or chocolate. These are wants that I sometimes take pleasure in. If you are struggling with “need” that is on you. [/quote]

If it's a want, not a need, why is it important that it happens during ToTing instead of later when the kid portion of the evening is over? I like having a drink but I don't do so at work or while driving or while chaperoning my kid through ToTing.

It’s not “important” or necessary or needed but it is my tradition with my neighbors. Sorry if you’re struggling hon. There are programs for you. [/quote]
