Addicts have begun to drink alcohol already at 6 years of age (x = 14.4 years, SD = 2,3 years), to consume tobacco (x = 14.4 years, SD = 2,5 years), marihuana (x = 16 years, SD = 4.9 years), heroin (x = 20.6 years, SD = 5 years). Mothers were mostly occupied with the up-bringing of childnen (44.3 per cent). The education of addicts was inadequate regarding the recent cognitions concerning children education. There was a lot of arguments between mother and father and later on divorce followed. The percentage of divorces among the parents of addicts was essentially higher as among the population. Addicts have a very small confidence in their parents, but if they do have some they much more trust their mother than father.
