I did not castigate Jewish parents for allowing older children to sip kiddush wine. They were talking about giving children alcohol on Purim. Close to drunk but not officially drunk.
No, you explicitly said that you were addressing me (you mentioned me by name). See below.
I *never* allowed my children to get drunk. Heck *I’ve* never been drunk in my life. I don’t keep hard liquor (or anything besides low-alcohol wine or, occasionally, a liqueur) in the house. And I don’t have any alcohol at my Purim seuda. And yet, you chose to single me out as causing damage to my children.

(Just for reference, since it’s in a different thread:)
Joseph asked me (in my response to saying that I allow my adult children some kiddish wine):
Wolf, aren’t you breaking the law by serving your 20 year old guests alcohol?
My response was:
Perhaps. But I’m not actually endangering them as I would be if I allowed a 13 year old to get drunk. If you can’t make that distinction, then I feel sorry for you.
To which Lightbrite responded:
Someone does not need to be visibly drunk to be impaired and have brain damage from consuming alcohol… especially a teenage or young adult whose brain is still developing until mid-20’s.
If you cannot understand that, then I feel sorry for those who look up to you as you serve them alcohol.
And, when asked who that was addressed to, she responded:
Wolf who had just said this to Joseph…
