Thoughts on drinking when you have young kids

So I’ve always just stayed away from any alcoholic beverage when my kids are home, I have an 8 year old and a 9 month old. I haven’t actually drank since before I was pregnant with my 9 month old so over a year ago. Fist let me say neither of us are drinkers. We will have the occasional drink at a get together or celebration but other than that coffee is definitely our go to drink. My husband just suggested buying a case of beer to enjoy in the evenings since we’re home all the time now and everyone keeps posting cold beers on their Instagram stories haha. What are your thoughts on having a drink or 2 when you have young children? Is it taboo? I’m talking one or 2 beers or glasses of wine. Nothing to get you black out drunk haha.
