1 Mom Shares How Wine Almost Ruined Her Life

Wine almost ruined this mother's life and her story is one you have to hear. Some moms believe that every mom needs a sippy cup. And they don’t mean the type you have prepared for the kiddos. They mean a glass to sip on some wine.

It has been a popular joke in our society that moms need a glass of wine after dealing with their children all day. This culture has been glorified and has been the center of fellowship for some moms. One mother, Laura McKowen believes that this can be dangerous and she knows this first hand because that was her story.

She was once one of those moms who indulged in wine on a regular basis and when she was socializing with other moms. Laura lost control over her indulgence and even almost lost her daughter to alcohol.

That's when she realized that a change needed to be made so she made the brave decision to be sober. And now she wants to encourage others to do the same thing and turn away from associating motherhood with needing a glass of wine. Her view on parenting is that it is a gift. Parenting is not a burden that requires a mom to need intoxication. So, her goal is to help eliminate the “drinking moms” phenomenon because it is so dangerous. What do you think?
