It sounds like you are asking about how much to drink at home, with kids, not when you go out and then come home to kids. Correct?

Totally depends on the person. I’m comfortable having 4-5 glasses (assuming I’m not driving of course).

No one asked about the health implications.

This depends on body size, tolerance, and the drink.

I think you need to MYOB unless they both are getting blackout drunk, and I don't even drink.

It's fine to have a drink or three after your kids go to bed, especially if they are sleeping through the night.

We don’t have a hard and fast rule, but will check in with the other if we’re going out. At home, we rarely have more than two each, and always with dinner, over time, etc.

I don’t really think about it. I rarely drink during the day because I may need to run out for something at any time. Once we’re settled down for dinner, knowing the kids will have their bedtime soon after, I might have a couple of glasses of wine while I eat. As long as someone isn’t getting soused every night, I don’t really see an issue.

Why do you ask, op?

+1 but if we have to drive one of us won’t drink

2 drink max

DH and I agreed we will never have more than five, combined. So at most, one of us will have three drinks and one of us will have two.

But three is very rare.

2? 3 maybe if it's a festive occasion with friend in your house?

I'm a small person and 1 glass doesn't even make me feel anything.

Dont both get completely drunk. However many that is for you.

More than 1 is okay. Uber/taxi and ambulances exist in a true emergency.
