Unbalanced

The entire article requires revision. It's poorly sourced, badly written and seems less an objective description than some sort of commercial for AA. In short, it represents all that is wrong about Wiki. 86.158.122.137 (talk) 20:41, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. It should also include the perspective of their Families, usually seeking help in Al-Anon and Adult Children of Alcoholics. 172.116.38.91 (talk) 19:27, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Controversial?

The very first sentence of the article says that this is a “controversial” term. Yet no where in the article does it explain or address what “controversy” there is. Clearly from the talk page, people don’t like the tone or information presented in this article. Someone should be bold and edit this article to explain the “controversy”. (I have no familiarity with the topic so can’t do that bold editing myself.) 2600:1700:975E:E000:6D95:3C0C:FA27:2B66 (talk) 07:08, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
