I'm just baffled by it. A few years ago, my wife's best friend got hit with her 3rd DWI.

This is supposedly an intelligent woman that has a good job paying way more than I earn. I don't think she drinks more than I do. But her choices are different. That's what bothers me about this. I'm not going to get into detail. But something my father taught me before I had a single drink.

Similar to how my mother drove in the point to not get a teenage girl pregnant, my father always taught me we have a choice. You either don't drink, or you don't drive. Don't ever do both. Both of them made sure to show me examples. My mother actually made me watch a movie at the age of 14 about a dude that got his girlfriend pregnant at the age of 17. What a nightmare.
