DESCRIPTION:
. Here's the granddaddy of them all: I’m not hurting anyone else. Of course they're hurting someone else. None of them is worth the air it takes to speak them. From the Publisher The book starts with 40 excuses alcoholics use to explain why their drinking is all right. But if you're confused about how to respond, this book will help. They hurt their family because of inattention and lost earning potential; they steal from their employers through wasted time and lowered productivity; and by drinking and driving they pose potential harm to children or anyone else who gets in front of their car. Would you be reading this book if you weren’t hurting? Alcoholics hurt those they love by shortening their own life span and decreasing their quality of life
Ken Lucas is a certified counselor and has extensive experience working with individuals and families whose lives are impacted by alcohol.
Wasn't what I had expected This book just wasn't my cup of tea. While I took away maybe one or two pointers away from the total read, it purely was written with the alcoholic in mind. NOT the family member being affected by the alcoholic. I was greatly disappointed in the content matt
