I am not sure how you take away "alcohol is something you drink in moderation" from being given it at an early age.

  Because you learn that its just another beverage rather than some forbidden fruit.

    To go even further, it's just another beverage that tastes nasty. As a kid, my mom and dad let me taste a variety of beers/wines from time to time when I asked, and every time I thought it was disgusting. I still don't drink primarily because even years later I cannot stand the taste of alcohol, even when it's diluted; my secondary reason is because I don't want to limit my experience of life.
