Furball, as much as I love the country I live in, the English attitude to alcohol is even more crazy or worse than that, downright dangerous.

People on the continent love a drink, but you don't see drunken thugs wandering down the streets.

To my mind, part of it is licensing laws, and part of it is this whole 'underage drinking' stigma (read forbidden fruit) we have here.

Central London on a Saturday night is just horrific because of this.

I have to agree with furball,  we let our kids taste alcoholic beverages from a very young age.  we usually have wine with our noon and evening meals and we never excluded them from that.  by the time they were off to college they were very ok with libations and we have never had an incident with them that negatively involved alcohol.  when my eldest ( a daughter) was around five years of age she was helping me in the garden.  it was a warm summer day and I was steadily depleting my supply of cold ones.  it seem that I opened 1 took a swig and put it down when I came back it was drained.  after the second one I found my daughter Maureen quite tipsy. giggling her head off.  the subsequent headache cured her of alcohol abuse for ever.

Tough issue in many respects.

The first full day I spent farming with my dad he offered me a beer.  Cuts the dust you ate all day harvesting. I know I ate more supper & slept better afterwords.
I was probably 15 at the time.


In some respects its better to let em try it at home under controled enviorment than waiting till they are 18 & go out & get all messed up.

Moderation is the key.

I'm away from my normal computer...when I logg in and hit reply or new thread it said I did not have permission to access this.  I emailed scuzzy and he said I had changed somthing on my account but didnt follow through or somthing or another  So basicly he rolled back my account to the day I reglistered to fix it.  No big deal to me....i'm just happy to be posting again.  Now i have to start my avitar search and replace the Eagle Globe n Anchor that I had up there

My parents would let me get drink to see what it's like as long as I stayed home and they knew..

Moderation is the Key I agree..

So far I don't care for alchol..
