It does happen though. My wife's grandmother was an alcohol abolitionist. We're not talking the 1800s here, I'm not that old. She died in the 2000s. But she was super religious and was part of a temperance movement.

Anyway, once she died, the beer and wine started coming out at family gatherings and they have not turned into raucous affairs. The kids at the gatherings seem to be doing fine.
