If your teenager was drinking regularly and doing very dangerous behavior would you stop drinking?

I’m watching Dr. Phil talking to an alcoholic 20 year old still living at home and before he said it I said to my husband, I’d bet her mom drinks (her mom was on the show too) and I was right. Her mom allowed her daughter to drink when she was a younger teen, but says she never knew the extent of the drinking going on.
I think when someone in the house is an alcoholic, if you want them to stop you need to get rid of all the alcohol in the house and not drink also. At least not drink when you are with them.
What say you? Should parents, grown ups, be able to have their wine with dinner even if their teen is known to under age drink and has done irresponsible things like drink and drive or even has wound up in the hospital to be hydrated and monitored after drinking binges. Kids aren’t supposed to drink, so it had nothing to do with adults and parents drinking? Do you look at it that way?
