Wrong. I have family mostly Irish with American Indian and they have no problem with alcoholism. None. It is a morality problem—and habituation in young childhood—modeling....or a void that needed filling.

All addictions are to cover fear, lack of love, insecurities. Eating to much-—during boredom or in high stress situations-—they learned to eat when under stress in young childhood to deal with the stress or boredom. It is a habit. Everything a person does becomes habituated if it is repeated enough times.

All behaviors are learned and habituated. Good moral behaviors are learned and habituated. It is why some cultures are better than other. Behaviors that the cultures promote become “normal” and common. They promoted drinking and smoking-—it became common. True some bodies are affected more easily by alcohol but that is no reason to become a slave to anything if you believe in God and have formed strong morals in childhood. Study the stoics.

Cancer victims in the same family were exposed to the same toxins probably. I’ve known women —daughter/mother who got it in the same year. Cancers take decades to manifest-—they were both exposed to the same toxin at the same time. Families are exposed to the same toxins and same influences and modeling of behaviors. If the adults are drinkers, drug addicts, they teach their children to be the same.

It takes an exceptional outsider to rescue children from a family of addicts-—if the child even survives.
