You are a non drinker of alcohol, whether it is because you are a recovering alcoholic or just prefer not too drink. Why?

You are a non drinker of alcohol, whether it is because you are a recovering alcoholic or just prefer not too drink. Why is it NOT acceptable to invite people to a party and not serve alcohol? Even if it is other family members that do drink.

If a person only associates with others that don't drink but have family that do, Isn't it ok to ask them NOT too drink at your party? IF not, then why? What would you do?

I have had this problem now for several years with two different family's-my own, and my fiancé's family. S sister told his mom to have alcohol even though the majority of the people that came to his dads b. Day party don't drink.

I don't feel that it is right for people that do drink to 'force' their choice on others, if they know ahead of time there will be no alcohol allowed then they can choose too come and enjoy w/o or stay home. Why do the people that are trying to refrain from drinking have to be 'tested' in their own house? I am curious to see what others opinions are on this topic as I have always heard 'have it available' just in case, no matter what.

It's your party ** Your chioce My husband and I don't drink so we never even think of buying alcohol for our parties. We buy lots of soda and friut drinks for the kids. I think if you have family or friends that can't handle not drinking at your party for that short of a time, then they must have drinking problems.It is very rude of them to bring alcohol into your home if you have specificaly asked them not to.

If those guests can't have a night/day of fun without drinking alcohol at your house then they should not come. I have an alcoholic step-father, who of course drinks at his own parties, but never has he brought alcohol into my home. I agree with you!

Personal Preference If you're giving a party in your own home, and you're a nondrinker, then I don't see any reason to feel compelled to have liquor on hand for just in case. However, I think the mindset in America is to expect to drink an alcoholic beverage at a party. The exception is church groups (though the Catholics and Episcopalians imbibe, some even at church functions).

If I gave a party, I'd probably offer wine even though I am a nondrinker. It doesn't offend me, I just don't want to drink.

I do not drink but... I have family members who do and that is something you need to talk to them about. They KNOW THEY HAVE A PROBLEM. They choose not to do anything about it.So when you have a party I suggest (from the nondrinker of the group) to keep on hand nonalcoholic wine and beer.

Yes they carry it in your local liquor stores. Just ask @ the counter and they will direct you to where it is in the store. Or if they refuse it let them have one drink and tell them they have had enough.

Hope this helps. Good luck.Ps I do not drink because I have a seizure disorder and am on a lot of medicine. My family tells me I am not missing out on anything.

So I believe them when they tell me this. Sources: askville community .

I have never been a recreational drinker, by personal preference. (though I am not militantly opposed to alcohol) my wife has lost interest in recreational drinking since before I met her. When we got married, we made the choice not to serve alcohol at our reception, and had no trouble or complaints from anyone.

However, I previously had girlfriends who were recreational drinkers, and they tended towards the opinion that alcohol was a necessary component of fun. (the extreme example made the claim that she was not an alcoholic, because she only drank beer - not hard liquor. However, she would not drink basic brands like budweiser and such, because the alcohol content was so low she got full before she got the desired effect) when we host any activity, people know that we do not serve alcohol.It is simply not a part of our life, so it isn't on the menu.

We do not raise objections to people BYOBing, but in the minor get-togethers we host, it is a rarity. However, I feel that our peer group is also a bit of a rarity. Alcoholic beverages in events hosted by other members of our peer group are treated like any other sort of party treat - as an accessory to the activity, rather than as an activity in itself.

I suggest that if your household is a non-alcohol household, then don't bother to stock alcohol, and let it be known that you don't stock it. If you have problems with others' drunken behavior, then you are within your rights to request that the alcohol wait until after..

What is in the alcoholic drink called "PainKiller.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
