12678011, Do You Drink In Front Of Your Kids?
Posted by daryloneal, Wed Dec-17-14 10:30 AM
Admittedly, I don't hang out a whole lot. I work. A Lot.

So a happy hour here or there, maybe. A drink with a friend here or there.

A couple of Sundays ago, a buddy of mine called me last minute saying "Hey, we're having so friends over to watch the game. Feel free to bring the family".

I said "Alright cool, I'll come and bring the kids."

So I get there, and everything is cool. Small gathering, a couple of other couples and their kids. Good fun.

Then I see that for every touchdown, they were taking shots.

I didn't participate.

Not judging anybody, but that just isn't my thing.

1 - I'm not a big drinker like that.

2 - When I do drink, I don't do it in front of my kids.

No defined reason why. Just doesn't feel right to me.

There were other activities for the kids (building ginger bread houses, games, and all that).

What say you?

Do you do the whole "grown folks table vs. kids table.. stay out of grown folks business" thing, or do you COMPLETELY separate the two?
