principles and traditions
Quote From: hotbubbles30Ann,
I totally agree with you that Dr. Phil needs to use the oppertunity to share the free resourses out there for people like us. Alanon and Alateen has saved my life and my family is happier then we have ever been. I could not do this alone but Alanon is there to help me, always. My teens also have the help of Alateen. We today still with the alcholic in our lives but, have peace and serenity. No one knows what you have been thru except others that have been there and have learned how to cope by using the Alanon tools. I already wrote on the message board a short message about Alanon but, thank you for addressing Dr. Phil straight forward.

Heather I too have been a member of the 12 step program for many years and wish it could be publicly announced at this level. It was the beginning of saving my life. Maybe the reason he doesn't mention it is because of the traditions and specifically number 11. Attraction and not promotion. I think it is probably unfortunately a political fine line on having it publicized on television due to anonymity and the foundation of the program. sad but true.
