What's the outlook for kids who drink early in life / Medical News today, 14 Oct 2005

What's the outlook for kids who drink early in life: " A study in the October issue of Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research looks at variables that may precede or predict AFD, with a focus on four areas: child characteristics, family demographics, family psychopathology, and child behavior problems. Surprisingly, aspects of the child and the child's environment seemed to affect their AFD more than family history of alcohol dependence. "
