Living with an alcoholic means all of the following EXCEPT ______. [br] [origin

Life with your family is the hardest thing when living with an alcoholic. Living with an alcoholic is very different from living without one. You must be ready to expect the unexpected. An alcoholic is very unpredictable. One day you may be in trouble and the next day they will act as though nothing ever happened. They may also forget what they have told you. Children of an alcoholic learn to live one day at a time and accept that rules and plans will change almost daily. You will also notice that there is a lot of fighting and emotional neglect. Some alcoholics may get violent and use vulgar language often. Money is also a big issue. You may need money for something and they will not have it because the alcohol is the most important thing to them. You will find that if you want to have money for yourself that you have to earn it on your own. So, build up your own world by getting a job, being in sports and getting good grades. Do not pretend that everything is fine and that it is normal at your home. Also remember that if you have a parent that is an alcoholic that it is more likely that you will also be one.
