Alcoholism Recovery & Treatment

Hypothesis i am not to sure how to spell it.
Is this to broad.
People who abuse alcohol are more likely to have health problems than those who remain sober. Would that be a good example?

I am helping my 14 year old with an assignment and was wondering if anyone knew a good resource (preferably free) where I can find a 4 page essay that I can work with. Any help is appreciated.

I have noticed that so many people fro 40 to 60 years old are alcoholics.. Is there a reason for this? what about their youth might have caused this?

Or other drug use?

Many people in history who are considered geniuses, were also alcoholics or drug users. So what do you think?

If someone is religious, does that mean that something missing in their lives and they are unhappy.
