11% of 5 to 7 year old like a drink?

[Notters]

Seriously what is this report about? 11% of Parents let their 5 to 7 year old drink at home.

Admittedly the research was carried out by Churchill so it could be a Croydon thing?

Some people are just brainless.

The parents are too weak to say NO, more addicts and toothless obese people for the hard working sensible tax payer to fund down the line.

Oh what a future the kids of this country have.

If this is the case, I would suggest that the survey conducted by Churchill Insurance wasn't the most statistically sound.

11% of 5 to 7 year old like a drink?
The other 89% just drink to fit in

without knowing the phrasing of the questions that lead to this statistics, you cant read much into it. also need to know what "a drink" is qualified as, is it a cheeky sip of mum/dads drink or are they necking pints?

Fair point.

It does seem to have a whiff of nonsense about it!

My nephew is 2 and I am forever stopping him from grabbing my beer. The little guy loves the taste!

Spot on!! This needs to be taken with a massive pinch of salt. And a wedge of lemon.
