It was a summer night, and our family along with a whole bunch of other people was at our neighbor’s house for a party. It was a very fun time! There was music, and food, and we were enjoying life. I was only a few years old at the time, maybe 4 or 5. But I can clearly picture that night. Something would happen that would be argued between me and my parents for years to come, and still is today. There was a huge white cooler full of drinks, which contained everything from juice boxes, to beer. In fact, I remember being introduced to Tang orange juice in a pouch. TASTY. I walked over and opened the cooler, needing a drink. “Lemonade! That looks good.” I thought to myself. Little did I know, it was a bottle of Mike’s Hard Lemonade (which contains alcohol). I was 5! What do you expect! I didn’t know it was alcoholic! So this is where the controversy comes in. According to my memory, I downed the entire bottle of lemonade, and it tasted great! But, my parents say that I didn’t! But I know that I did. I specifically remember the taste of that lemonade, and the fact that I Ioved it. My parents’ argument is that I would’ve been totally knocked out if I had really had the lemonade, but I guess we’ll never know. Well, I think if I end up an alcoholic or something, I’ll blame my parents. They’re the ones who weren’t watching my alcohol consumption as a 5 year old.
