"It also amazes me that someone would try to deny that people who aren't addicts don't still get "converted" to addicts. Can't tell you how many kids I saw who had smoked pot about 5 times and drank a few times who had to "accept their powerlesseness over alcohol"."
If you say so. I never saw it happen and I never heard of it happening.
"Anyone out their in the real world understands that most college kids will go overboard partying, but still come out unscathed and sober up and lead normal lives. Only a small percent never stop the party. When you're not even 18, you haven't been alive long enough to see how you'll come out in the end, with the exception of physical addictions such as heroine which you'll need medical care to detox from, which of course AARC is not fit for."
Anyone out in the real world understands that college kids party after class, and don't get high all day.
"Tested? Funny stuff! Funny how if you're working up at the front you get to see people from low income families be refused for not being addicted, even though they willingly admit to having used more than most of the clients in AARC, but yet a wealthy young boy who's been smoking pot on weekends for 5 months tests say he's at a dangerous level of addiction."
:roll: Your hate for AARC simply shows you ignore reality. When I went through AARC many people could not afford to pay alot, and hey what do you know, they were allowed in/
