An afternoon by the pool with the kids and other mothers. Happy meals for the kids, and Mommy’s little happy meal, Zinfandel Blush. While the kids splash around in the kiddy pool, the mommies drink, laugh, and tell funny stories about their husbands. Wine is the social lubricant and everyone gets happy. This is the culture of alcohol that many young mothers are embracing. But is this a good thing or not? Join discussion...

Hope deferred makes the heart grow weary, but a desire fulfilled is like a tree of life.” (The Psalmist) How do you deal with disappointment? Do you retreat into a place of escape and isolate?

I offer you a way to start coping with your losses and get back on the road to recovery. Join discussion...

When I was growing up, my grandparents lived across country. And even though I only saw them every few years, the time I spent with them is a still a treasured memory. I am luckier than they were because three of my four grandchildren live close by, and I am able to spend time lots and lots of time with them. Join discussion...

Co-dependence is a learned behavior, rooted in shame, where the needs of others are chronically put before your own. The co-dependent lets others define who he is and sacrifices his own integrity to insure the emotional wellbeing of another. Co-dependents are caretakers and rescuers, controlling their outside world to obtain inner peace. Join discussion...

Submitted by authorette 38 months, 3 weeks ago
It would appear that families are what they seem, but most often they are not. Every family has secrets that greatly impact its emotional health and personality. A family could have witnessed or experienced a trauma, and it was simply never talked about again because there had been an unspoken vow of silence. Some family secrets are generational, and others victimize someone in the family. The secret could be about something legal or reflect a law that was broken. Some feelings are repressed, consciously or unconsciously, while others are acted out by the children in a family for generations. Join discussion...

If I went to my doctor with a set of symptoms, no one would question the fact that I was sick. No one would impose a moral judgment on me for having those symptoms, and I wouldn't be viewed as a law breaker for being ill. But many people reject the idea of addiction as a disease and view the chemically dependent person as a social deviant. Join discussion...
