If I start drinking and have a family history of Alcoholism, what are my chances of becoming an Alcoholic?

ALCOHOLISM ADDICTION 8 Comments »

Both of my parents were Alcoholics near the time they made me, though my mom quit drinking for the nine months she was carrying me, and my grandparents on both sides where Alcoholics as well. So I’m curious if I started drinking are my chances fairly high that I could begin to lose control over it and become an Alcoholic?

Thanks.
