I think it is a complex issue with complex causes. And sometimes we have the "chicken or the egg" scenario where people who start to drink in excess isolate them selves more to hide it, and it becomes self-perpetuating.
Also, I know people who lived in very loving family conditions and had jobs they loved, and still fought addiction. I would not want their families to think they were the cause of it.
Isolation is probably important to consider as a contributing factor.
