Adult Children of Alcoholics - Part 1 with a Panel of Guests

Research has shown that one in five adults in the U.S. has lived with an alcoholic parent or relative while growing up. On today’s classic edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson interviews a panel of guests to discuss the traumatic and far-reaching effects that alcoholism inflicted on them as children. Discover the hope that can be found in Christ and the safety of support groups as the guests share the pain of their past.

Everyone has a story different than another person. But everyones story relates to anothers. Im 38 and from a long line of alcoholism. Our goal in life is to break the cycle of denial... Honesty, courage, communication, persistence, and faith in change is our only option. My five year old daughter deserves it.

I listened to Dr. James Dobson starting 40 years ago! He helped me through the most difficult times in my life through the radio and his books and I want to thank him immensely! I was able to apply God and Dr. Dobson's wisdom when I was very confused and didn't know what to do! I know that results would have been way worse if I did not have his suppoert. So happy to listen to you on U Tube❣️✝️🛐👨‍👩‍👧‍👧🇺🇸
