Who are our first teachers in life? Our parents. If we see our parents reach for substances to sooth themselves, then children of alcoholic parents tend to do the same thing.

Alcoholism is something that can be passed down. It just depends on how much self control you have.

My father is an alcoholic. I used to feel like I should never drink. But I realized it's him I should blame. Not alcohol.
