Quote:A South Dakota family went unexpectedly viral after filming a 7-year-old during her first communion ceremony.
Stefanie Heidebrink said her daughter was nervous before going up and kept asking her how much wine should she should drink.
Brynley went up and took more than a sip. The whole church laughed as the child kept drinking and then nonchalantly walked back to her seat.

Yeah, it's so funny how children don't know how to drink alcohol.
I don't recall being given wine at my first communion. I don't think that was a thing.
Kids learned to drink at wedding receptions where the booze flowed freely and there were hundreds of people in attendance. The adults would drink some of their free drink and set the glass down on a table to go dance or eat or whatever and the young boys (mostly) would run around and guzzle partial drinks until they were passed out, puking, or both. Even when I was pretty young I could see how this wasn't a good idea and as I got older it explained the massive consumption of alcohol all around me.
