Bruce Willis was a former alcoholic and had quit drinking completely. But he recently stated that he likes to go out and have a few drinks, and that alcoholics can do this without falling off the wagon. Do you agree?

Once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic. Even if they had a successfully therapy, they'll never be able to handle alcohol in a "healthy" way. My two cents.

You're always going to be called a "recovering alcoholic" whether you drink or not. I do believe that an alcoholic can learn moderation, but it takes a LOT of work to get there.
