Episode 130: 'Kids Are People Too!'
How do we talk to children about addiction, its effects and how it is treated? What are we supposed to say, and how do we say it? How do we make children a part of the conversation when one of the adults in their life goes into recovery? This week, we’re talking to Casey from ‘Addiction And The Family Podcast’ about his new book, entitled ‘Mommy’s Getting Sober’. While the book is written from the
perspective of a child with an alcoholic parent, it also includes a guide for adults on talking to children about addiction. Casey explains how it has reached both children and adults alike, and about how it offers us a perspective which is too frequently excluded from the conversation.
