17 yo dd was talking to God on the big white telephone last night after going out for a meal with friends and drinking wine.
Normally she won't drink more than a few sips of wine with a meal when we've offered it to her and just doesn't really like the taste of alcohol - so it caught us out (and her!)
I don't think she drank much - she said four of them shared two bottles - but she's quite petite and obviously not used to it, so it made her drunk. She was very contrite this morning.
I've advised her next time to make sure she only tops up her own glass, doesn't fill it and pours water into the glass after every glass of wine.
What advice have you given your teens - especially when they go out to pubs/clubs? (She'll be 18 in a few months)
