Cheers!

A letter from my kids' (American) school today contained the following statement:

"More than a decade of research has consistently found that the more often kids eat dinner with their families, the less likely they are to smoke, drink and use drugs."

I wonder how watching their parents glugging aperitifs and then several glasses of wine night after night will stop my children becoming alcoholics. Or does the sight of adults drinking put children off alcohol?
