Has the "boozy mom" culture gone too far?

You see it in movies, on social media, and all over groceries stores. Has the culture of "mommy-drinking" gone too far?

"Wine O'Clock" and "Mommy Juice" are pretty common phrases you could see on tea towels, cute cocktail napkins and some wines are even branded "for moms" - but has this trend taken on a new life? Marketing tools have made this an easy catch phrase for moms who feel like they just need a break. However, the problem lies in the fact that alcohol seems to be the only answer.

Today, the Daily Blast Live hosts discuss this dangerous trend that could be doing more damage than fun, as it perpetuates the "binge-drinking" culture that is not only harmful to women, but harmful to their children as well. What some don’t realize is that, according to the Centers for Disease Control, just one glass of wine a day for women is considered moderate drinking.

So moms, chime in. Do you think the idea of drinking as your "me time" is harmful? Give us your #DBLTake & send us your thoughts on Facebook!
