Customer Review: Disappointed but not surprised
Summary: 1 Stars
A fine example of how some AA members blame everyone else for their addiction while shouldering none of the responsibility. Blaming his 'disease' while never acknowledging that it was his own actions that caused his addictions.
William Cope Moyers targets his father's success for his inability to get his own life together. He also blames his parents for not seeing through his lies and getting him into treatment earlier, how it might have saved him from going through the situations he put himself in.
He whines about getting jobs simply because he is the son of Bill Moyers and sabotages each one of them. He glosses over the lies and the pain he puts his family though and ignores that it is his father's name and money that gets him out of situations and into some of the most expensive treatments available.
Moyers is now a Hazelden Foundation spokesman, another job where being Bill Moyer's son helped. Perhaps by staying isolated from the real world he will finally be able to maintain his sobriety.
