[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 723411, member: 1963"] I like the occasional cider/mead, and usually have a few bottles of the craft-brewed stuff on hand. When my mother was able to visit, years ago, I had wine on hand for her because despite her having had a drinking problem/alcoholism in the past, she was/is able to have a glass of wine and stop. on the other hand, when my sister visited, I did not serve alcohol. She is unable to stop at one. I think with a family member in early recovery, it is kindest not to drink around them, and best not to have alcohol available. Friends or family who can't accommodate that might have issues of their own. (I'm thinking of the poster whose family was drinking in the kitchen after being asked not to serve alcohol.) [/QUOTE]
