Are Children of alcoholics more likely to become alcoholics themselves than children of non-alcoholic parents?
Using marijuana or any other drug is a choice, to begin with. The turmoil in the lives of children of alcoholics may cause them to seek relief by using chemicals, but that is by no means guaranteed.What is likely is that, once they begin using chemicals to turn their brains off, they will continue to do so and become addicted themselves. It is much better to seek relief in counseling or one of the support programs for children of alcoholics, such as Alateen. I have seen many families in this situation and all are from deprived backgrounds. The children learn from their parents and copy them. This will lead to alcoholic children as they grow up, who also dabble in drugs and other illegal activities, unless they get the help they need immediately.
