Alcoholism and Violence

Hi Gail,
When I came across with our class blog, I know it can be a touchy subject for First nations because all First Nations have the same common problem in their reserves which is alcoholism/drug abuse and viloence. If anyone is going to say no, not all reserves, I will object! We all have been faced with similar problems and having experienced alcoholism and violence in our homes/upbringing. It is something I couldn't talk about without feeling ashamed about it, but today I can talk about it without feeling ashamed because, to me it brings more healing to self and makes a person stronger and I wish people would see it the same way as I do. that's it for now.
