I just wanted to hug you ladies. I know it's not easy being a Mom of an autistic child. I'm not one, but I have a niece that has Autism and I'm in awe of my sister-in-laws patience, and determination, to help her daughter.

alcoholics/non-alcoholics and AA
by IronGland ini realise this question is off-topic for this forum but i believe this forum moved away from it's original intent long ago, and is now just a social place to talk to others with a similar background.
i've got a friend who has recently begun going to aa meetings.
she tells me that an 'alcoholics' body breaks down alcohol differently from a non-alcoholic and the difference in metabolism is what differentiates between an alcoholic and non-alcoholic.

If you go to an AA meeting, you will see loads of coffee, and people standing around drinking
Indeed, tis true!
A had a friend that was involved in AA a few years ago. There had been an AA weekend "retreat" at a mountain camp that the area group had sponsored. Normally, the camp provided coffee free of charge to various groups that held events there. It was the first time this particular place had AA used their place. The owners of the camp were so blown away by the huge amount of coffee that was consumed over the weekend, that they informed my friend, who help organize the event, that they would have to charge them for coffee if they wanted to use their facility again.

MASTERMIND
(Submissive Introvert Abstract Thinker )Like just 8% of the population you are a MASTERMIND (SIAT). You can be silent and withdrawn, but behind your reserved exterior lies an active mind that allows you to analyze situations and come up with creative, unexpected solutions. Normal people call this "scheming." Don't learn German.
Anyway, your sense of style and originality are your strengths, and people will respect your judgment once they get to know you. If you learn to be a little more personable, you could be a great leader--you've definitely got the "vision" thing down. Just make sure all the plotting you do behind those eyes of yours is healthy.
Famous masterminds in television: Dr. Claw, The Scarecrow and Mrs. King, Montgomery Burns. -

I used to attend 12 step meetings years ago. Even bought into the whole "disease" concept, especially with alcoholics. My family is loaded heavy drinkers. Some have even died as a result of their chronic drinking (My maternal Grandfather and an uncle on my Father's side). Growing up, we might not have had enough to eat, but their was always plenty of booze. My Dad ruined his health drinking. I used to drink beer as a young kid. Yet, I'm not a drinker at all as an adult. Complete t-totaller. Two drinks and my body just shuts off. So much for heredity and alcoholism.
I do not believe it to be a disease at this time. Why? Because there is no formal physical diagnosing. If alcoholics are "different" biologically, then why aren't there tests done to confirm their abnormality from the rest of the general population. When one suspects they have any other disease, there is usually a test, or battery of tests done to confirm such a diagnoses.
For instance, there is suppose to be an actual difference in the way the brain of a potential alcoholic develops. Well, ok, fine. Yet, when one goes to a treatment center, no brain scans are done to, indeed, see if the patient's own brain has developed in such a manner to support the diagnoses of the "disease" of alcoholism.
Diagnoses is determined purely by behavior alone.
Can you imagine anyone who suspected they had cancer not undergrowing formal medical testing?
However, I do believe that Alcoholism is disorder and a powerful one at that and AA can be of tremendous support to those have a compulsion to drink to their determent.

Well, I'm an older woman and we tend to be a little more straight forward.
How about this: "Dude! Hit the road, I ain't interested!"
Or: "This barbell would look lovely wrapped around your neck"
For the staring: "You know, staring at me like that will make hair grow on your eyeballs"
And you can be subtle too. Just allow long lines of drool string out of your mouth while you pick your nose. That should work, unless he is turned on by that sort of thing.

BTW: The scruffy little kid in the white dress is me. Notice what a dutiful little JW kid I was! Always paying attention.
On a more depressing note: I'm old enough to be THAT woman's mother!
