Adultery is consensual sexual intercourse between a married person and someone other than that person’s spouse. Adultery is rarely charged as a crime. It is more often a concern as a part of a divorce case. Adultery is one of many possible grounds for divorce in the majority of states in the United States. Historically, adultery was one of the few grounds, and in one state the only reason, on which divorce would be allowed. Adultery was also historically important in states that linked child custody or property decisions to the grounds for divorce. Now that most states have “no fault” grounds for divorce, adultery is much less legally significant.

Addiction is a common language term for the clinical entity known as Chemical Dependence.

The term addiction has taken on a connotation that is highly stigmatized (like the term “alcoholic” is much more stigmatized than the term “drinking problem”). In reality, addiction is a primarily genetic, chronic progressive disease of the brain that is characterized by the intermittent inconsistent loss of control over the use of mood-altering drugs, resulting in repetitive adverse consequences to the user.
