Stella & Georgie on the Child/Parent Alcohol Dynamic

A Polaroid snap. A desperate need for that feather in the cap. You thought your childhood was beautiful. You felt loved; you had fun; you don’t know what all the fuss is about, but I am telling you that when I was someone that drank alcohol, I was a Brussel sprout. Kids. Such beautiful things. Kurt Douglas dimples in chins, sweet, sweet eyes, the smell of baby breath, and then I come along with the stench of death. Hoisting them onto my shoulders, swerving this way and that like a giraffe trying to become the zoo acrobat. I could have done much more. I could have been much more. And that’s why I want to create this movement of a million people. I want our children to see that it’s cool to be someone that doesn’t drink alcohol, but first, we need to wake the fuck up and take a look at the devastation that we are wreaking in this world. Every time we hold a bottle of wine or a can of lager in our hand we are a walking, talking billboard for the alcohol industry. Our children become us: the imagery; the immorality; the constant psychological battery. And that’s why today’s podcast is so crucial. A child telling her mother how her drinking drove their relationship to a dead-end, and how the transformation to someone that doesn’t drink alcohol means she’s now her best friend. Stella. Georgie. Thanks for your honesty, courage and bravery. Here is today’s podcast.
