I think it's possible that might be part of it. I also think that teaching children from a young age that alcohol is nothing special - letting them have a little amount of it here and there with dinner, not getting drunk in front of them, making it seem as normal and boring as possible. Worked for my parents so it must work for everyone. 

Worked for my parents too...although I have had my moments
