OR

Thumbs down (Yes this but reversed!)

    I've served it at every party we've had at our house, I did not smuggle a flask into the gymnastics place.

    I'm all for it as long as everyone can handle their alcohol.

    Even if my husband and his family weren't Mormon, I'd probably still say no, because all the people I know don't give a crap about having too much around kids. Luckily, my husband and his family are Mormon haha.

    I think it just depend

    I haven't had it at my kid's parties but I don't see anything wrong if someone else has beers or low grade drinks out at their parties, assuming that no one would get drunk or "overly happy"

    I won't take alcohol anywhere if we're having a "destination" party (like at a park, firehall, etc).  But for the small family get togethers we have at my parents, the wine is flowing!

    So far we are having all our bday parties at home, so the alcohol/wine is flowing for the adult guests (it would be a huge insult to them if there was none present) but at any other venue.... Nope

    I don't think kids' parties need a full bar, but I fully support having some adult libations for the adults!

    I personally don't feel that it is appropriate.

    There is no way I could survive my MIL and BIL being at my house without a glass of wine!  I would not bring it to a venue however!

    I wouldn't but only because neither DH nor I nor a lot of our friends who would be there drink much, if at all. It would be a waste of money. If they were likely to drink I'd offer some beer or wine maybe. But I think for a couple hours it's not a necessi

    After reading some of these replies to this post, I think I definitely would not have alcohol at my child's party (given MH and his family weren't Mormon). I guess to some of you, alcohol is somewhat a necessity at every single party you attend? That's pr

    Our family is far from the type who drink at every event, but my DS's first birthday featured a beer pong tournament during naptime. I am ashamed to say that the grandpas won.

    We had DD's 1st birthday party at a restaurant/bar down the street from our house, so there was alcohol.  If we had it at home we would probably serve alcohol as well.
