[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are new to Catholic school (high school) and really like it a lot.  I am Protestant, and find myself attracted to many things about the Catholic faith.  I have been surprised at the emphasis on alcohol consumption at parent events at our school - it seems many of these events revolve around alcohol or are marketed by emphasizing the availability of beer, wine, etc.   The school has a  strong written policy, of course, against under-age drinking, but it seems to openly celebrate alcohol consumption for adults.  What is the atmosphere at your Catholic school and are you comfortable with it? Thanks...[/quote]

I was raised Catholic. Most of the Catholics I was raised around were Irish or Italian. Both cultures are highly social and enjoy a drink or five. Had you never met a Catholic before your kid went to this school? I was enjoying the communion wine from about age 12![/quote]

This. Love me some wine.

Signed, 
Italian-American Catholic [/quote]
