[QUOTE="missy44, post: 293345, member: 6201"] yes, the dreaded first legal beer... we have always been the parents everyone calls strict and overbearing. we never let our son have a drink before the age of 19 even though we knew he drank ocassionally. it was supposed to be a milestone moment. we're not big drinkers who couldn't wait to crack with open with our difficult child, and we don't worry about an ocassional drink. drinking has never been an issue with our difficult child. it just went too far and we didn't make our ground rules clear. they're clear now, believe me! my difficult child did apologize today, without prompting, to me, my husband and his siblings. he said he felt terrible for how he acted and said it won't happen again. it seemed sincere, only time will tell. thank goodness for this site on a monday morning. just knowing that others have been there and done that helps so much (not that I would wish this process on my worst enemy :) ) [/QUOTE]
