My dad told me, "If you're going to drink you may as well do it at home". I wasn't yet 13 when he let me have a tiny bit of beer with dinner and wine on holidays. By high school, I was allowed to have cordials.
I've let my daughter taste what I drink-wine or winecoolers mostly.
I see nothing wrong with allowing it in the home among family. I would have a slight problem if someone else were to serve my kids drinks in their home and I wouldn't do it in mine to theirs.
