Ala-teen?

Hello.

Wanted to get some ESH on a situation. Thanks in advance.

My daughter will be 10 in less than a month. Is she too young for Ala-teen? The reason I'm considering Ala-teen for her is because of my illness (alcoholic) and also her biological father is an active alcoholic/addict.

Her father is in jail . . . again. He's been in and out of jails and prisons since she was born. Alcohol/drug related offenses.

I think my daughter could use the help of Ala-teen or some other type of support group right now. I'm sort of at a loss for what to do to help her process this illness, especially with her dad back in jail. She's getting older now, and every time he goes back to jail or prison, it's hard on her.

Any suggestions?
