11th Tradition


That's the only problem I would have with this film. Do ANY of the
celebrities identify themselves as belonging to a particular 12 Step
program? As it is if any of them relapse people will think of them
as representing a failure of the program. That's why they came up with
the 11th tradition. People are fallible and if any one person tries
to represent recovering folks that can cause a problem.

12 Step programs don't need promoting, and I get that isn't the
point of the film. It's about treating the disease as a health
issue instead of a criminal one, and it's long since time to do
that. Look at how that's working in Portugal.

No this film respects the 11th tradition of 12-step groups according to these guidelines:
