Publisher's Summary

This audiobook for teenagers and children is about understanding parents and unhealthy lifestyles during and after a parent’s drug or alcohol dependency and abuse. Children of alcoholic or addicted parents often have difficulty understanding what is happening to their parent.

The story goes through the life of Alex whose father suffers from the disease of addiction and dependency on drugs or alcohol. It explores how Alex thinks, feels, and acts to his father’s dependency and how family separation may occur at times. Drug and alcohol dependency is explained to Alex in the way children and teenagers can comprehend without instilling the idea that the parent does not love them. The audiobook also contains helpful information for helping teens and children to understand alcoholism and drug dependency problems. It further contains information and helpful discussion questions for adults. It is perfect for listening together if you are family, foster family, caregiver, counselor, social worker, teacher, or family friend to help the child understand how lives are impacted the disease of addiction.
