[QUOTE="John6185, post: 3279976, member: 25679"] I suppose that if a member of the family had addiction that possible the offspring could have the same genetic makeup. However, most of the drug counselors are ex-druggies so that should show one that using drugs is beneficial-aside from the medicinal effect. However, along the same line, if a member of the family is a thief and brings home some good stuff, does that predispose another member of the family to be a thief? Does he or she have the same genetic makeup? Frankly, I don't subscribe to the genetic effects of addiction, it is a learned behavior and the person using drugs has a weak disposition and easily yields to their peers who are using drugs. I've never used drugs even though I've been around people that have. I've been too high on life to seek drugs and don't need an escape system. I've learned as Nancy Reagan said, "just say no." To me, it is a decision and I wish those that make a bad decision he best life has to offer. [/QUOTE]
