Adult Children of Alcoholics

Thank you Dave for sharing this article. I was going to send it to my children but I did not recognize in them the behavior they were describing or the pattern of myself as an alcoholic, especially when they were young. Kind of comforting for me as a mother. I come from a family who drank a lot but not when we were young. Maybe it helped. HC

It spoke to me. I hope it resonated with those here.
