Once again, growing up in Italy the approach was quite different, as with nudity.
I don't recall when a bottle of wine wasn't on my family's kitchen table at lunch and dinner. Yes, Italian families especially back then sat twice at the table for food! I remember the first time I was allowed a little wine at the table, I must have been 13 or 14. Now I only sit at the table for dinner, and a glass of wine is most times very much appreciated. Wine in some Mediterranean Countries is not at all a vehicle to get drunk, but to enjoy a meal better. Beer was/is paired mostly with pizza in Italy, or for a get together with friends. I never saw my parents drunk. Even with my friends, I don't recall getting together "to get drunk" as I have seen as an habit in the US or other Countries. Ok, perhaps 2/3 times when we were teenagers with gin or vodka!
My mom, at 96, drinks half a glass of wine for lunch and half for dinner every freaking day!
Unfortunately, smoking was also a (BAD!) habit in my family, and everybody but one sister did smoke. My father offered me my first cigarette after dinner when I was 15, after my mom found a package hidden in my room because I was secretly smoking with my friends. My father, always a smoker, died of a heart attack when he was 75, and since then everybody in my family (me included) quit.
