[quote=Anonymous]Kids don't become binge drinkers because its the forbidden fruit. They either will or they won't. Most who drink in teens and early 20s binge. I know we did and it was 20 years ago almost. Permissiveness/ sanctioning doesn't deter, it just doesn't. It normalizes. Your kid might be a casual/ light drinker or may be a binger or may abstain pretty much regardless of your policy. Talk about driving and getting in cars more than anything! I think if your kid thinks drinking at home is OK they are definitely going to drink just as much if not more away from parents. OP sorry, no advice since it was an awkward situation in the moment![/quote]
