An alcoholic family and its harmful effect on children
Journal Title: Current Problems of Psychiatry - Year 2014, Vol 15, Issue 1
Abstract
A large number of people in our society have been brought up in alcoholic families – this is a difficult and often traumatic experience for a little, delicate human. Children are not capable of self-defence and can’t understand why they have been deprived of respect and attention. Their adult emotional life is burdened by numerous unpleasant memories, fear, sadness and anger. Since the majority of Adult Children of Alcoholics are not aware of the relationship between their childhood and adult life failures, only few of them decide to start therapy.
