>>Cathy - in general, I agree with your choice. The one piece you might want to consider is somehow helping them to know that if they don't have the addiction gene, there is a middle ground between drinking too much and not drinking at all.

Acceptable only to the not-so-attractive woman at the end of that bar at 3 in the morning. beware, nothing good ever happens after 3 am.
The American Republic will endure, until politicians realize they can bribe the people with their own money.
- Alexis de Tocqueville
No man’s life, liberty, or property is safe while the legislature is in session.
