My lad (13) has several times he has absolutely no interest in drinking or getting drunk when he’s older. A lot can change of course but I don’t think getting hammered several times a week is the same path they’ll take as we did.

My lad is nearly 19 and never been drunk  , ditto my daughter approaching 17 …  they seem to have  zero interest in it .. I didn’t / don’t drink around them but don’t think that is a factor , I think it’s just their generation tbh

My lad is 21 and daughter is 18. They go out and get pissed all the time. Daughters boyfriend threw up in an Uber on Saturday night. 

I don't think it's generational. 

That said they don't go clubbing literally every week, twice a week as I did at that age.

I’d be out Tuesday & Thursday on the cheap £1 a drink nights. Then Friday and/or Saturday too.

Places that used to be packed on Friday and Saturday nights in Tamworth at 10/11pm and empty now.

The decline of Tamworth town centre might also be factor here though.

I think it's more different nowadays though for those that age. It's more a case now of cheap pubs or trendy bars - depends location I guess, but there is definately not the nightclub life compared to that of the 90s and 00s.

Like @Genie says, you can drive round the same places nowadays that would be crammed with clubbers etc falling out onto the streets at the wee hours of the morning to see nowadays they're ghost towns and the nightclubs no longer exist there.

I blame the parents  

The boy could be off to Uni next year , be interesting to see if he develops a thing for alcohol then

They obviously read their 'Look and Learn' carefully.

Ha , precisely 

tbf that's why I've never drunk around them  .. I may have the occasional beer at a BBQ or something but they won't have seen me drunk and in my full throws of stupidity that come with it , they can experience it for themselves if they want  , but as a parent I just figured the lessons I give my kids shouldn't include how to dance drunk on a table  or climb walls at 2 am

Both of mine have done Uni, one went through 4 years and was sober and diligent all the way through.

The other one… not so much. I’ll just say this, I went to a performance by the second of my offspring to show parental support for their artistic endeavours. If I hadn’t had decent reaction times I’d have been hit in the head by a flying dildo.

He's off at Uni now, as is daughter.  Just home for the weekend.

Quote

The report, published by Berenberg Research, found that Gen Z were drinking 20 percent less per capita than Millennials – who, in turn, drink less than Baby Boomers and Gen Xers did at the same age. While previous generations may have marked the passage into adulthood with binge drinking and hard partying, today’s youngsters are much more temperate, shying away from excessive alcohol consumption and instead prioritising their mental and physical health.
