aries – When I grew up I was taught the chasivus of wine and shnaps, I was taught how its only for kiddush and lchaim, Yes – the wine bottle stayed on the table the entire seudah, and was only used for kiddush, a lchaim, and bentching. No one helped themselves to it without the parents aknowledment. Why? Because thats what we were taught, I am I a an alcohalic because my parents let me have controlled amounts? no i am not. There is no reason why children would not listen to this rather than any other thing that they are mechanech them about. Are the kids going to turn on a light on shabbos behind thier parents back? No, why because the parents taught them not to, and kids listen to thier parents. So if the parents teach thier kids when amd how alchohol is supposed to be consumed than they will listten. (obviously we are not taliing about rebelious kids that dont listen anyways.) where as if the parents shelter their kids from any alcholoic everages, how are the kids when they grow older know the reponsibilities of when and how much should be drunken.
