A COMMON highly disturbing variable destructive to children's lives, is Alcohol use by a parent. Alcohol massively reduces normal tolerance windows in such parents, as does religion, contributing to widespread abuse, and too often later adoption of these twin evils, by the abused offspring. Thus societies remain medieval, for centuries beyond the escape from delusions and violence any actual normal human would expect, as inculcation prevents ful human development, for the lifetimes of those caught in the GABAergic effects of both alcohol and religion, passing these dementing cognitive harms, with no end or even substantial relief in sight, or to be expected. Such distorted cultish societies deserve significant active change.
