Walking to school this morning with my kids my daughter Bryce (8 yo) asked me, "When I am older, can I have a drink once in a while"?
I was a more than a little shocked by the question. My wife and I occasionally have a drink when we are out but never at home. I wondered where she learned about "having a drink", and in my head blamed her friends, and the media. I regained my composure and asked her, "What would you drink"?
Calmly she said, "Sprite or Lemonade".
I responded, "Yes, once in a while it's okay to have Sprite or Lemonade".
