My dad used to drink a lot when I was very young. He never got abusive but mum hated it. I always used to wonder why he acted so silly though. One day he decided enough was enough and gave up cold turkey. He hasnt drank since. As an adult now, and a heavy drinker myself, I understand how hard it was for him to do that and I have a lot of respect for him. He loved us very much to go cold turkey for us.
Someone once pointed out how strange society is "Isnt it wierd how you need a liscense to drive a car, but anyone can have a child?".
