I quit drinking alcohol as well and looking back on parties and major celebrations I started asking myself if some of the guests were unable to control their alcohol consuption/ were addicted. A few candidates come to mind.

So wouldn't it be sensible to rule out alcohol at all* to protect those who can't protect themselves, without confronting them with the very uncomfortable and intimate questions?

*not legally, but I wouldn't want it on my parties
