Mom's Right

Proverbs 31:1
The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him.
2 What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?

There's no doubt who this boy's mother was.
1- My Son
2- The Son of my Womb
3- The Son of my Vows

She is saying your mine, your mine, your mine therefore because you are listen to my teachings of what will destroy you and your character. 

1- Women 
Proverbs 31:3
Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.

2- Wine
Proverbs 31:4
It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:

You'll never find a virtuous  woman (Morally good; acting in conformity to the moral law; practicing the moral duties, and abstaining from vice;) if all she trying to do is lure you to the bedroom for sexual pleasures. Neither will you make wise decisions for those who are under you while under the influence of alcohol. 
There's the story of King Ahasuerus who made a very bad decision while under the influence. The drinking had been going on for 7 days when King Ahasuerus decides to call his wife Vashti to undress before the servants, princes and nobles to show them her beauty. 
Esther 1:11
To bring Vashti the queen before the king with the crown royal, to shew the people and the princes her beauty: for she was fair to look on.
But she refused 
Esther 1:12
But the queen Vashti refused to come at the king's commandment by his chamberlains: therefore was the king very wroth, and his anger burned in him.
She refused to lower herself and perform before a bunch of drunken men.
Esther 1:15
What shall we do unto the queen Vashti according to law, because she hath not performed the commandment of the king Ahasuerus by the chamberlains?
Refusing her husband the king, cost her, her Queenship. 
Esther 1:19
If it please the king, let there go a royal commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it be not altered, That Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate unto another that is better than she.
Doing what's right will not always promote you to a higher level but you can never do right by doing wrong. 

Son keep yourself from wild women and wine for you will never find happiness in either they will only bring you lower says King Lemuel mother. She Right!
