Excellent topic. I agree with the OP that self is the issue. Sobriety is within a person, not dependent upon circumstance. There are addicts in my life, too.

Certainly contentment and happiness arise from within or one is always "victimized" by circumstances.
However, it is learned. And extremely few parents teach it. Very few parents know it and practice it, model it, themselves.
And THAT usually correlates with a significant degree of RAD, as well.
Most children have few to no examples in their life of how true that is--in positive example ways.
They have tons of examples that whining is the way to go. Demanding is the way to go. Throwing 2 year old fits is the way to go.
