...terms of action or behavior on the part of the drinker, as Wechsler advocates, because the students who are adversely affected by drunkards perceive the extent of the harm in different ways. For example, a student who has never encountered drinking before may be more appalled at having to clean up after his roommate than a student who looked after her siblings when they drank during high school. Since students come from different backgrounds, it is logical that there exists a gap in student's perceptions of the degree to which thinking creates problems, even when they are personally involved...

...heroin and methadone addict for eight years, but I was smart enough not to have children back then. I figured that if I couldn't help myself, I had no right to bring a child into the world to include in my suffering. I'm 13 years clean. When I saw Elisa's face on your cover, I was horrified. I am taking a special lunch hour today. I will pick up my son at school and take him out for his favorite lunch and hold him. NAME WITHHELD ON REQUEST Chicago...
