. . . is having a segment as to whether it is appropriate for moms to get together with their young kids and break out a bottle of hooch. (No, Little Junior gets juice - the moms get the alcohol.)
A thought to ponder as I wait for Ann Curry Fake Concern to appear on my TV screen.

We have our playgroup at Frilly's at noon on Thursdays - everyone welcome! Moms have drinks and kids get to color on the napkins - good times, good times.
I don't know--call me around 5:30 & I'll let you know...
Seriously, I took my kids to a noon matinee recently on the tail end of an ice day (cabin fever can be wicked). There @ the Bedford Movie Tavern were 2 moms and their brood of 6 kids, two of them babies. Their kids had their TGI-Friday'ish meals while the Moms shared two pitchers of beer. And talked louder throughout the movie with each swallow...
I had a beer w/my lunch, but that was it. Hell, I had to drive home and stay awake for the rest of the day...I didn't break down the appropriate-value of the two pitchers, but I did wonder how they'd corral all of those little kids and get themselves home without running a curb on Harwood Rd...
THERE'S nothing wrong with MIXING babies AND alcohol.
I was drunk ALL the TIME...when I was PREGNANT with my lovely DAUGHTER Mzchief, AND she TURNED out...perfectly normal.

The beer is what makes Chuck E Cheese tolerable but always have a designated driver.
gramma-chief...that was priceless!
Hell most of them were conceived as a result of alcohol.
To gramma-chief...
CLEARLY you do NOT know me well enough to make such a LAME comment.
I lost BOTH of my parents and my ONLY living grandparent when I was a teenager.
Ha ha ha - gramma-chief. Love it! Remind us how you are related to Anonymouse. That rat needs killin'.
Txsharon, I'm not sure I've ever agreed more whole-heartedly with a post--Chuck E. Cheese should be sanctioned for not having beer served from the day it opened. It always makes me laugh when I see how long the line is on the alcohol-serving register, as opposed to the food line. Of course, I'm laughing from the back of the longest line....;)
My kids would spend their lunch money to buy me a pint of Old Crow when we went to the movies.
...drinkin' ol' crow whiskey and hot seven up...out in the parkin' lot!
That you Willie ?
It is I!!!
Is this the Wise County View thread?
That seems to be the only way to get through a playdate, IMO. But always have a designated driver ...
I think I've taught many of your children.

I'm a stay at home mom and there are many days that I wonder how I'm not an alcoholic! Personally, I see nothing wrong with having a drink or two during a playdate, as long as you don't become "intoxicated". I leave the heavy drinking for after bedtime!!
Don't get me wrong. I love children. But... if I was a parent, I would have to take a drink...... at some point. ;)
Since we are on the subject, I have found it fascinating how there is this whole other "subculture" of stay at home moms....everything from what I call the Supermom Domestic Divas to those of us who look forward to bunko and scrapbook meets so we can put a little vodka in the Sonic cherry lime-aids; then talk trash about the former group and how our houses have turned into giant toy boxes.
6:42, you made me laugh. Yes, you do have to take a drink at some point. Those little voices are darling....problem is, they never shut-UP! At certain times of the day--usually the Witching Hour (a.k.a. 4:30-5:30)--they just get louder and louder and louder....=)
Being a SAHM was the toughest job I ever had but also the most rewarding. I'd like to be a SAHM now.
I KWYM about never shutting up! Sometimes I want to crawl in a dark closet, shut the door and just sit.
Txsheehan you need to leave home and never come back. Your kids need a drink to put up with you.
Txsheehan you are more like a SHAM .
