Giving children wine tasting is not educating them to drink alcohol in moderation

I do not know about wines, among other things because I do not usually drink alcohol more than some cava at Christmas and in the long run some beer, although I prefer them 'without', so I believe Mr. Domecq, who is president of the Regulatory Council of Jerez Wine , when he talks about the qualities of Jerez wines.

However, I disagree when Mr. Domecq states, that children have to be taught to learn to drink, especially wines (whose benefit is taste); highlights our protagonist that 'they should still be given water'.

And it should not be normal for children to drink alcohol, and I am convinced that they have not taught them as a family (to drink), it is not the reason that they make bottles when they are older, ingesting large quantities of alcoholic beverages of doubtful origin and very low quality

The increase in alcohol consumption among minors It is a serious social and health problem. Physically and psychologically, any drug (alcohol included) does more harm to children and adolescents. But family education I should not go through trying to appreciate the taste of wine, but because parents exercise their preventive work.

It seems that Mr. Domecq had the opportunity to taste the wines of Jerez for the first time at age eight or ten, but today there is more information about the effects of alcohol. When that one that could be a fad or custom among families disappeared (allow children to taste alcohol), young people are not being denied the opportunity to meet, but wisdom is being applied.
