[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up with two alcoholic parents but somehow they were very kind and not abusive to us. Not trying to diminish the negatives many have, but not all kids with alcoholic parents suffer abuse.[/quote] My DH grew up with an alcoholic mother who drank herself into a stupor every night and passed out on the sofa. She was rarely physically abusive [b](she tried to drown him in the family pool when he was 8) but always emotionally abusive and erratic.[/b] Children of alcoholics get a very warped view of what is "normal" and "what is abuse." [/quote] Most children of alcoholics know not to bother Mom or Dad after 4:00 pm as the alcoholic is unavailable or mean.[/quote]
