Thank you very much for your insight :)
Unfortunately too late. My sister has had her first drink a year or so ago. She was 14 iirc. I had mine at 11 - 12.
We can shun alcohol. I have a bottle of Jaeger in the fridge untouched. I got it last Christmas.
In effect, being stupid with it when I was a kid made me realise I have a point where it isn't pleasant at all. It also made me realise that I hate the idea of me under the influence - I hate feeling like a fucking idiot.
That plus the damage it has done through other means has left me a non-drinker. If alcohol became a class A substance tomorrow and the day after consuming it was punishable by summary death, I would not care (except maybe about a right wing govt). I wouldn't give a shit about losing booze.
I also have young children. If I won't jump in a car after 1 drink, how can I look after my kids? What if one wakes up?
