Makeup, manicuring, eye brow waxing and plucking, tanning, women's high heel sandals, teeth correction and highlighting-- we have been discussing preparing for the wedding, right?

They put false teeth in if a young child loses an infant tooth before a contest; they highlight their hair and wax their eyebrows. Worse yet, they defend it. Traditional treatment programs, especially Alcoholics Anonymous, profess that being of service to others is a critical component of addiction recovery. And, I would agree with that perspective.

Providing a blanket rule, like AA does, not just leads people astray, nonetheless it?s also counterproductive because helping others sticking with the same affliction usually perpetuates victimization.
