... Being he is only 5 my gut feeling, and also my IC feeling is that the W is planting things in his head, I believe in regards to her not happy that I was drinking excessively. He is only 5 and said to me I was drinking too much beer. the more I think about it, she was planting that seed. As far as he knows it was Daddy drinking his drink, he is too young to know the effects and dangers of alcohol.
Did it work?
What ultimately got you restrict your intake of alcohol?
Because apparently you did start drinking less. Was it because of your wife asking you to or complaining about your drinking or was it because your kid was involved in that process of being afraid of you dying or asking why you drink so much beer?
Let it be known, I'm not a "tea totaller" or whatever that expression is. I enjoy a few brews just as much as the next guy, I advocate drinking responsibly, not driving when drinking, designated drivers, cabs, etc.
