My dad was so strict when I was a kid! He would've hit me with a belt if I had come home drunk.... Hurt pride was definitely less painful than a bruised behind!!!
Anyhow learnt to let go without having to drink - used to go out all the time and people would assume I was drunk as I was always the loudest / wildest there....
Learnt I didn't need to drink to have fun. Also noticed girls were either way too loose or sat in corner crying after few drinks......
I wouldn't admit it to him but my dad did me a big favour and by the time I could drink just wasn't interested.
