In one of my articles I talked about how addiction and codependency can be two sides of the same coin. That generated yet another request for an article about dealing with alcoholic children. Having to deal with adult addicted children is something I could never wish on any parent, but sadly, it is a reality in many parents’ lives.

Several decades ago I was involved in teacher training and taught educational psychology. A few traditional notions about good study habits were floating around, but unfortunately most had no evidence to support them. At best they were commonly held beliefs among most teachers, parents and students.
