Best Answer

The emotional complexities of growing up in an alcoholic family make it extremely difficult to break away from the craziness and build a healthy life of your own. Leaving the presence of the presenting alcoholic does not automatically "fix" the emotional problems caused by the relationship, which will be revisited until some sort of therapy has helped the family member deal with the emotional damage that always exists in alcoholic families.

Add to that the unwillingness of alcoholics to let go of anything, let alone the people who have been supporting them in their disease, and the term "hostage" is quite accurate.
