Are there any organizations that aims to keep children away from possible alcoholism?

Can you answer martha’s question about Addiction?:

My ex-husband is an alcoholic and I’m scared that my son would turn into one also. So, I’m looking for organizations or societies that might us be informed about alcoholism. I don’t want my son to be like his father. I want him to realize the consequences of abusing alcohol so that he would try to stay away from it. Please help me. I want to save my son.

    Addiction Feedback: Yes, Alateen. It will also help him deal with his issues regarding his father, and also give him someone to talk to in case he starts to feel that you are hyper-vigilant or over-dramatic.

    But, and this is important - he has to want to be there.

    Addiction Feedback: I think there are a lot of anti-alcoholism organizations today. In fact, there is an initiative by spouses of American governors called Leadership to Keep Children Alcohol Free which was founded in order to to prevent childhood drinking. There are also available websites with information about such topics like the Stop Underage Drinking portal. I really hope your son grows up to be a great man… and hopefully sober.
