Pam's son is a college student and an alcoholic. He still lives at home, and she often cleans up messes that occur when he is bi

nge drinking. Even though she wishes desperately he was not an alcoholic, she still feels like she somehow contributes to it. She tries to help him complete his assignments in school, even though they are really his responsibility, because she doesn't want to see him fail.

Answer:

Codependency is at work in this situation.

Explanation:

Codependency is a concept used in psychology and social work to understand and explain the dynamic of a family in which one member is a substance abuser or has another kind of addiction. According to this concept, while the family member becomes dependent of a substance, he or she also becomes dependent on the rest of the family and, likewise, the rest of the familly becomes dependent on him or her.

In the case stated in the question, although Pam is not happy with his son's addiction, she is enabling it by not making him accountable for his decisions and preventing him of experiencing the consequences of his actions. Besides depending on alcohol, his son has also become dependent of his mother in order to continue his addiction and she has become dependent on his actions for her wellbeing.

A minor (under 21 years old) has the same legal (bac) limit as an adult. a. true b. false
Butoxors [25]

A minor (under 21 years old) has the same legal (bac) limit as an adult.

The answer is false .

According to driving legislation, a "minor" is someone under the age of 21. Alcoholic beverages may not be bought, attempted to be bought, consumed, or owned by minors.

Driving under the Influence of alcohol by a minor is a crime if a minor is operating a vehicle on a public street with any measurable level of alcohol in their system (DUIA by a Minor).

Minors are excluded from the 0.08% BAC legal limit of intoxication. Driving privileges are suspended for the same amount of time if the minor does not have a driver's license.
