If you grow up with alcohol as no big deal, it stays that way for your whole life. At least that's the idea. I think it's a good one.

That's a really good theory, but what I can remember from being 15, is that a 15 yo does not know their limits. Much the same as when you're in college and you binge. You don't really know your limits until you've puked at least that one time.
But, I guess if you're drinking with your family then there might be less of a tendency to get hammered (unless your family is intolerable, then...drink till you puke).
