It's not a pretty sight I have expirince w/ an alcoholic mother, she doesn't drink anymore, but she says the alcoholisim is still in her blood.

Iv'e never been beaten or hit, Im very lucky many kids are abused by alcoholic parents, I wouldn't be able to tell you how that feels.

Almost my whole family smokes I used to cry over it, I finally realized I can't stop anyone.

Iv'e seen my mother cry hystericaly after the good feeling of the alcohol wore off.

I hate the smell of alchohol.

I know I'll never be addicted to it, that's something my mom taught me well.

I know people who abuse drugs, including alcohol. I don't have friends that use drugs. If they want to be friends w/ me they can't and won't use drugs.

Some people would rather, belive it or not have drugs than people who care about them. That's why I don't have friend who use drugs.
