No. We had our own glass we used for that. Paper cups in the bathroom. Cannot believe people drink out of the same glass.
Did you have a family water glass by the kitchen sink when you were growing up?

I always drank right out of the faucet, probably a gallon at a time. I've always been a big water drinker...never really liked sodas.
Somewhere along the line I dropped the "right from the faucet" habit. I keep a pitcher of it in my fridge.

I don't recall a water glass in the kitchen. But there was one on the bathroom sink- and everybody in the family used it.
Knowing what we know now about airborne particulate and things, sure makes the old shared glass unappealing, doesn't it?

That's what I was going to say- I guess they weren't germ-conscious!
As the old saying goes, Janice, we've come a long way baby! LOL!

Yeah, now, that you mention it, we did have this one glass, sitting there foe everybody. Don't know when we switched to using a clean glass each time, but we did.

My father was a chemist who believed in science. A communal glass? No way, Jose.
We had paper cups in the bathroom. Each kid had our own color of aluminum drinking glass in the kitchen. They were washed out every night and when we wanted water the next day, we took down our own glass and used it.
Well, that, or we drank from the hose!

Talk about flash backs! The one from early childhood was pink ceramic - if brushes weren't rinsed really well, there would always be foamy dried crud at the base where the bristles rested... ick.

Sure explains why in some households, every contaigious illness ripped through every family member.
