I just had a sobering thought the other day. My oldest is at the age when I had my first beer.
I preach to my kids that drugs are drugs. Period. They can do just as much harm as good. It doesn’t matter if they are prescribed, legal when your of age, or not legal at all – they are still drugs.
Alcohol has wreaked havoc in my family, and continues to do so.
And it’s legal.
I will not ever again touch alcohol, nor will I depict it in my art.
By the way, I don’t have an issue with people who drink, just the drug itself.
