This book examines the role in a family system as the scapegoat. What a scapegoat is, how the role develops in childhood and later the impact in adult life. This story perpetuates the malignency of long standing abuse, humiliation and degradation of a young girl growing up in an alcoholic environment and later as a troubled adult. This is also a story of redemption, on the road to recovery and a candid look at childhood trauma and its correlation with later domestic violence.

Additionally, the impact of substance abuse on children and later, as adults presenting with stress disorders is explored. The importance of a spiritual life is discussed as an avenue in the treatment of Post traumatic stress disorder, substance abuse and dual diagnosis is considered. The twelve step model of recovery is offered as is the importance of therapeutic intervention in dual diagnosis. A candid look at the impact on children living with the scapegoat is also presented.
