Thinking I judge too much. Went to the liquor store today and saw a dad bringing in his 4-6 year old and thought to myself really in a liquor store!

Yeah you judge too much. Unless the kid was carrying a handle...

Way too much. I've been in a liquor store with my infant, and I've taken her to more than enough brewpubs and beer gardens. Of course, I'm also German, which is why I have a hard time understanding the US attitude toward alcohol to start out with.

I’m Mormon. Thanks for judging me that I’d be judging you. I actually catch more judgement cause I don’t drink. Drink what you want man. I could care less. I agree with M1. As long as you don’t leave your kid in the car. That’d be messed up.

I would agree. What’s wrong with it? As long as they get older you teach responsibility. You’ve never had a drink I front of your kids?

Huh? Can't get drink via osmosis.

I have a drinking problem? F*ck you, Peck! You're a Mormon! Next to you, we all have a drinking problem!

SA1 - it was a funny quote from the movie "Burn After Reading"...no judgment intended

I take my 2 year old to the weekend spirit/wine tasting at the local store (grocery stores have very limited licenses here). Everyone knows his name at the store and it's a fun outing for the both of us (they have small shopping carts that he likes to ride in). He knows alcohol is for mommies and daddies and I like to think taking away the taboo aspect of it will make him not go crazy when he is older (in addition to a lot of other conversations/discussions)

Better in the store than outside in the car, alone. Though I would leave them at home given the choice (2.5 yr old twins are a handful)

I take my kids to the brewery all the time. Don’t judge, just live a little
