In response to "ST Poll: If your drinking was underage, were you allowed to drink at home?" by CrankYanker

We were given beer at home from an early age - like French kids get wine. As a teen I'd sometimes have a glass of sherry or port with my Mom.

Drinking age was 21 and when I left home at 19 I don't remember it being a big deal when we drank on board ship. In fact beer was considered a good antidote for sea-sickness :)
