latest research indicates that there are at least 920,000 children and
young people, under the age of 18, in the UK today living in a home where
one or both parents abuse alcohol.
<p>70% of these children will try to hide the problem from the outside
world. They are often frightened and in despair, with no one to turn to
for help and support.</p>
<p>They often feel responsible for their parents drinking. They feel that
they are the problem, that they are responsible for the arguments, the
violence, the stress and anxiety that characterise family homes where one
or perhaps both parents drink too much.</p>
<p>NACOA responds by providing information, advice and support through its
free, confidential telephone helpline <strong>(0800 358 3456)</strong>.</td>
