You had a choice. You could have emulated your parents (which many children of alcoholics do), or you could have learned from their example. I think if you had chosen the first path, I probably wouldn't be enjoying your clever blogs today :)

I don't know about that. I could have been the female Brendan Behan!
No, please not that. He died in his early 40s. You certainly wouldn't be here to write :)
He did. Sad case. My father grew up in the same area as the Behans and was good friends with Dominic, Brendan's younger brother.
🙁
I've had friends die prematurely from alcoholism. Could never seem to break free of it.
My mother and grandmother, both alcoholics, both died in their 50s. I was determined to buck the trend:)
Lucky, smart, @deirdyweirdy. 🌹
