The other night, my neighbor was drinking wine from a cup and she let her 1 year old chug it. She just giggled and said she would sleep better tonight. I was shocked! But is this something normal that people do and they just dont talk about it?

In a lot of cultures, it's not uncommon for kids to drink wine -- especially watered down wine -- with dinner. My folks used to let me drink 3oz glasses of beer when I was a kid.
Some families view beer and wine as everyday beverages to be consumed in moderation at meal times and see giving their kids small amounts as a way of teaching them responsible consumption. Some parents also still use "old school" remedies for colds, teething, and toothaches that contain hard liquor as an ingredient.

no...but I have heard stories about it..& I went to an AA meeting once & the guy spoke of his parents giving him liquor at the age of 12..& that pretty much started his road dow to alcoholism...

My parents. Sad, but true. My dad would let me take the first drink of his beer if I would go get it for him.

No, I heard stories that people use to give it to their children to make them fall asleep faster.
