Answer to Question 1

c

Answer to Question 2

Enabling occurs when friends, family members, or acquaintances engage in behaviors that reduce the negative consequences of the addict's drug-associated behaviors on the addict, e.g., loaning the addict money, covering up their mistakes, making excuses for them. This decreases the recognition that there is a problem and the motivation to do something about it, and also facilitates the process of denial. Denial refers to the inability of addicts to consciously acknowledge that their drug-taking behaviors are causing problems for themselves and others or that they have lost control over their drug-taking. Without recognizing that there is a problem, there is little likelihood that treatment will be sought out and if forced into treatment, little likelihood that the treatment will have any lasting effects on the addict.
