Adult children of alcoholics are adults who spent a part of, or their whole childhood in a dysfunctional family, where the biggest problem was alcohol addiction in one or both parents. In families with parental alcoholism, there is usually a lot of dysfunction in interpersonal relationships and in the upbringing of the children, which does not provide a healthy and optimal developmental environment for the child. There is often physical and psychological violence, and other forms of abuse and neglect that children perceive as traumatic. All this leaves the child with severe consequences, which they also struggle with in adulthood. Unresolved and traumatic childhood content often remains repressed and unprocessed and helps shape one’s functioning in adulthood, which is frequently emotionally and socially immature. Adult children of alcoholics often have problems in experiencing and regulating their emotions, as they had to carry many emotional burdens in a dysfunctional family, while they had no real opportunity for the healthy development of emotional regulation. The article will present research on the emotional experience of children with their alcoholic parents and how they recognize related consequences in their adult lives. Using the content analysis method, we analyzed 71 anonymous forum posts on the counselling forum on the topic “Adult children of alcoholics.” The directed approach to content analysis was used to validate forum posts by people who described their childhood experiences with an alcoholic parent. We identified parts of the content that fell into two predetermined categories: emotional experience in childhood with an alcoholic parent and the experience of its consequences in adulthood. The results showed that the adult children of alcoholics mostly experienced severe feelings of fear, shame, sadness and disgust with their alcoholic parents in their childhood, and that these feelings have remained unprocessed. In adulthood, they struggle with negative consequences in the personal sphere (e.g. poor self-esteem, inferiority, anxiety, depression), in interpersonal relationships (e.g. problems in partnerships, mistrust, social phobia, parental stress, complicated relationships with parents) and in everyday functioning (e.g. coping with one’s own addiction, dysfunctional behavioural patterns), but they also recognize that because of this experience they have managed to lay the foundations of their lives differently and better. The results confirm that children are hidden victims of parental alcoholism and justify the need for psychosocial and therapeutic support even in their adulthood.

There is a positive aspect of the putting by legislator the wide tasks in the social sphere of upbringing in sobriety and counteracting alcoholism on the gminas. However it is a pity that with reference to poviat and regional self-governments legislator did not follow the idea of involving other levels of the self-government in performing these tasks, taking into consideration the peculiarity of poviat and regional self-governments. The Authors suggest, however, that there are explicit needs emerging in this area. Moreover, Authors formulate a large amount of criticism directed against the Act on upbringing in the sobriety and counteracting alcoholism as a legal act forming the basis for performing tasks of self-government units in the social sphere of upbringing in the sobriety and counteracting alcoholism. First and foremost, they indicate lack of precision, numerous legal loopholes and legislative chaos caused by subsequent legal amendments. Moreover, they emphasize lack of correlation with other acts concerning addictions and addicts, including the Act on counteracting the drug addiction. Thirdly, they show that imposing tasks of this sphere only to a small extent on the poviat self-government causes a breach in the system of reacting to social problems in which in other spheres poviat administration is significantly involved (e.g. welfare). Fourthly, they formulate a more general thesis that the legislator does not have a clear concept of the participation of the public administration, including territorial self-government, in solving and counteracting alcohol problems. It seems that a comprehensive analysis of the social sphere of the problem of addictions (including alcohol addictions) is the method for resolving this problem. Besides, one should consider formulating tasks for public administration (in particular territorial self-government) in one legal act, which may result in consolidating the actions of the administration in the struggle against so difficult and socially dangerous phenomenon of alcoholism and drug addiction.

The analysis of the rationing tasks performed by territorial self-government in the economic sphere of counteracting alcoholism points to some conclusions. Various legal means applied to the rationing of trading in alcoholic beverages determining access to alcohol, indicate a considerable role of the gmina self-government and regional self-government in the discussed sphere. This role is not assigned to the poviat self-government in anyway, but to a large extent is related to gminas. On the one hand, there is a positive aspect of the process of passing on the wide competence to the territorial self-government as consistent with the principles of subsidiarity and decentralization that guarantee an important influence on one of the most important branches of social life. On the other hand, we should remember that in this case the trading in alcohol beverages is a special kind of economic activity. In the doctrine there is an opinion that the issue of alcoholism is the nationwide problem, not only the local one. Therefore one should consider whether solving alcohol problems should be assigned to local authorities often remaining under local influence and financial needs of a local pressure group, whose interests may not be consistent with the needs of restrictions on access to alcohol. This contradiction is deepened by imprecise legal expressions and doubts coming from currently binding legal regulations concerning upbringing in sobriety and counteracting alcoholism.

W artykule dokonano próby oceny wielkości całkowitego i nierejestrowanego spożycia alkoholu w latach 1984-1996. Potrzebę przeprowadzenia takiego szacunku autorka uzasadnia tym, że w latach 90. spożycie nierejestrowane przybierało szczególnie wysokie wartości. Wniosek taki wysnuwa z faktu, że w latach 90. rejestrowane spożycie alkoholu na ogół malało. Rosły jednak wartości wskaźników alkoholizmu.
