    ITT: people who apparently despise spending time with their kids so much, that they need to drink to enjoy it.

    like WTF people…it’s not an issue to have a glass of wine (or whatever) while spending time with your kids. But it’s a fucking problem that you don’t enjoy it without it.

      ITT: someone making shit up and pretending it’s happening ITT.

      Buddy, parents spend a lot of time with their kids, and kids are exhausting. You’re just coming across as intensely judgemental of anyone who drinks to unwind.

      it’s not an issue to have a glass of wine (or whatever) while spending time with your kids. But it’s a fucking problem that you don’t enjoy it without it.

      You just invented a person to be mad at.

        Have you? Because this attitude is something I only see from people that either don’t have kids or spend any significant amount of time interacting with children in their spare time.

        And to answer your question, I have two kids of my own, neither of them require me to drink alcohol to enjoy their company.

          No one is saying kids require you to drink. The idea that having a glass of wine while playing games with kids and other adults is very puritanical of you. Do you come from a family of alcoholics or something? You’ll be shocked to know many people also have an alcoholic beverage at dinner and their kids are there! 🤯

            Did you even read my original comment? As I said, drinking alcohol around children is perfectly fine and normal…needing it to enjoy it, like several people mention or hint at ITT, is a problem.
