Read the two articles below:
https://www.psychologytoday.com/conditions/alcohol-use-disorder
In the comment section post your thoughts on each character in the video.
First, WHAT is an alcohol abuser and how do each of these people qualify as an alcohol abuser? List three examples specific to them & use the reading as support.
Second, what is the worst thing they do as people? This is your opinion, but you must find an article to support your opinion. For example, I think the worst thing Noel does is put her children’s childhoods at risk. So, I would need to find an article that supports the fact that alcoholic parents do that to their children.
Third, based on your opinion, what is the likelihood each of these people will recover? And what type of damage have they invoked on society or their family? Be specific.
Names:
Noel: The mom
Mike: Island dad
Kenzie: 20’s Party Girl
Neal: The older dad
Do this in word, docs, or pages and copy to post below–you must then respond to ONE classmate about their assessment. BE SPECIFIC when you respond to classmates. If you agree, say why. IF you disagree, say why. EXPLAIN everything. 😉
