Hmmmmm.....

I'm an alcoholic in recovery. During my 5th step, I realized I have a lot of Al-Anon traits also. I was raised by alcoholic parents, so I probably qualify for ACoA also. Triple winner ?

Anyway, having done my 4th step, shouldn't anything I experienced as a result of my alcoholic parents when I was growing up pretty much be a moot issue ? Shouldn't realizing that my parents were human and made mistakes, and forgiving them and praying for them suffice ? Or are there other things I don't know yet ?

Edit: Sorry to hijack
