2: Candidly presents much-needed facts and information
For Teenagers Living With A Parent Who Abuses Alcohol/Drugs by Edith Lynn Hornik-Beer is a very straightforward book written especially for young people, and offering direct answers to basic questions such as "What causes alcoholism?"; "What do I do about the abuse?"; "Where can I get help?"; and "Should I stay at home?". With information about Alateen and other helpful programs, sound and critical insights, and a down-to-earth style of narration that candidly presents much-needed facts and information, For Teenagers Living With a Parent Who Abuses Alcohol/Drugs deserves the highest recommendation and would be an invaluable addition to any school or community library collection.

And, every teenager who has come across such problems needs to know that the book is out there.
