[Susan27484]

I was raised in a Jewish home, so when I was a child, I was allowed a very small amount of wine on special occasions. My mom used a small shot glass, and it was never filled completely. I think I was allowed it when I became old enough to ask, I’d say around 5 or 6. I was never big into drinking, maybe because my curiosity had been satisfied, and I thought it tasted terrible!

Regarding your last question (is it OK if the kids get drunk), that’s a no-brainer: No. You should also be setting an example and not get drunk yourself. My parents only drank on special occasions, or sometimes at dinner, and I think they set the standard. I have three siblings and none of us are alcoholics, though I do have a problem with chocolate!
