I have lived with Bill W in my living room, in my bathroom, in my bedroom, my whole life I've had to live with AA and you're telling me I don't know what I'm doing.
What happens when a child's birthday cake is overshadowed by their father's commitment to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA)? In this eye-opening episode of 'Safe Recovery', a guest shares her personal story of growing up within the AA culture. She provides a raw and honest look at how her father's involvement in the program shaped her childhood and family dynamics.
The conversation doesn't shy away from controversial topics, touching on the cult-like aspects of AA and the troubling issue of sexual predation within its meetings. The episode calls for a reevaluation of AA's methods, particularly the practice of sending sex offenders to these groups. The guest argues for more empowering and safer alternatives for those seeking recovery from alcohol dependency.
If you're curious about the impact of AA on families or interested in alternative recovery approaches, this episode offers a compelling narrative that challenges conventional wisdom.
