This was like two years ago.
There was a lot to celebrate in the survey results.
But the American Academy of Pediatrics came out with a their own little statement on the survey saying, this is fantastic.
But we have to stay focused because a lot of what we're doing uh in terms of our parenting in terms of how we approach things as physicians is um based on sort of this wishful thinking or or, you know, the way we'd like things to be.
And part of that, um, and and they didn't write about this, this is sort of extrapolated out.
has to do with this, um, if we're more like the French and we're just laissez-faire about our drinking, then somehow we will raise moderate drinkers.
And it turns out that is so exactly wrong.
First of all, this fantasy that we seem to have about if my kid has a sip or if my kid has um, you know, some watered down wine like the French do, then there'll be this attitude of, Oh, it's just wine.
It's no big deal.
And so
when our kids, American kids, go off to college or h have their first, you know, drinks of alcohol in as actually as the research shows, in middle school, not in high school.
I'm I even I do it.
I'm like, Oh, when they start drinking in high school No, no, no.
Most kids say
will s have their first taste in middle school.
So if we're waiting until middle school to start talking about the stuff we're waiting too long.
That somehow like we won't have these binge drinkers because they'll be like, oh, it's just alcohol.
It's no big deal.
I'm allowed to have it around the house all the time.
Um, that just doesn't hold.
