I remember before I quit drinking, most of the people I hung out with had kids. A lot of the people that I no longer hang out with, they still get drunk in front of their kids. It's so normal to do that, but you see the kids doing things now and the parents wonder, 'how did they get so out of control?' Well, they've been watching you have house parties for weekend after weekend for how many years? And you don't think that's going to have an effect on them? No, certainly had an effect on me.
Ever felt the pressure to join the 'wine-mom' club just to cope with the chaos of parenting? Lane Kennedy and Tamar Medford tackle this very issue in a candid episode of 'Laughing Without Liquor'. They dive into how the wine-mom culture normalizes alcohol dependency and its ripple effects on parenting and role modeling. Why do so many moms reach for that glass of wine?
From stress relief to societal acceptance, especially during the pandemic, they break down the reasons behind this trend. But it’s not just about pointing out the problem. Lane and Tamar offer practical advice on healthier coping mechanisms and stress relief alternatives. They also shine a light on how parental drinking habits can impact kids, emphasizing the importance of seeking help and building a supportive community.
Whether you're a mom feeling trapped by this culture or someone who wants to understand its implications, this episode offers valuable insights and a roadmap to breaking free.
