My sister argues that Intervention is a violation of papas right to choose?

0

Recently I recieved an e-mail from a doctor. He wrote, “I decided not to intervene on my alcoholic father: I thought it’s the lifestyle he chose and I never wanted to interfere. Two years later my father died. The very next day I was watching dawn-news channel’s program “The First Blast”, and here you were talking about alcoholism that it wasn’t a lifestyle choice. It was a chronic, progressive, predictable disease called alcoholism. Suddenly, it dawned on me as if i killed my father.” We make many choices that affect our lifestyle: where we live, what we eat, who our friends are, how we spend our free time. Lifestyle choices can have consequences, both good and bad. Some affect our health. We choose our lifestyles, but we don’t choose a disease. Addiction is a disease, not a choice. Making the decision to drink or use other drugs is common in our society. Some people drink or drug too much and too often. Consuming fourteen drinks a week, for instance, is categorized as heavy drinking.
