[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are leaving the country for a very special vacation. The hotel provides a bottle of sparkling wine and we are considering allowing DD12 a small half glass to toast with us. Is this in poor taste? [/quote] It's not in poor taste, OP. But it's not a good idea either. You are endorsing underage drinking. A 12 year old does not need to celebrate anything with alcohol. Why would you send that message to a 12 year old? If you like to drink, please examine your own habits. Some parents want their children to drink to justify their own drinking. Please care more for your child. Kids are going to drink if they want to drink, but parental disapproval of underage drinking is a powerful deterrent. Don't endorse it, not in a 12 year old, or even a 19 year old. When they're 21, they should have the maturity to handle drinking. [/quote]
