Mother is codependent and an ACOA (no treatment/recovery ever) and stepfather, with whom I grew up, was physically and emotionally (and in 2 cases that I know of, sexually) abusive to my 6 siblings and I.

My husband is an A (RA, so far as I know) and is an ACOA. I am his 2nd wife and his first wife was also an ACOA and an RA.

So far as I know, none of my siblings is an actual A; altho I suspect one brother of being a heavy drinker, I don't think his problems in life stem from that but from other personality issues.

My other brother's college-age daughter was drunk enough to need an ambulance ride to the ER this past summer and has had at least one other incident of extreme drunkenness that I am aware of. I'm worried about her but don't believe there is anything I can do at this point.
