Reply to "Not all ACEs created equal"

How have you found that it stands alone, Lori?

I've found that if there's divorce, there are other ACEs, but many people don't think that living with a parent who drinks too much or who's depressed are ACEs. And that it sometimes takes a while before people understand that the times that their mother was sleeping off another "secret" (i.e., we don't talk about mom's drinking) bout with booze and dad was at work, and they were going hungry and hadn't had a bath and didn't have clean clothes and were left to take care of themselves in the back yard, that that was neglect.
