[quote=Anonymous]As someone who has a lot of alcoholics in the family and am married to an alcoholic (recovering): -if you are the host, do not serve alcohol if you have chosen to invite your brother and he will be attending -it is absolutely fine not to invite brother at all, especially if you think he will show up drunk (or bring alcohol) anyway -it is absolutely fine to decline to attend events where brother will be present and might be drinking. It is also fine to attend but then leave once he starts drinking. -look out for your nephew as best you can, and none of the above limitations should ever apply to him (he himself should always be welcome even though your brother might not allow) -you will get pushback from extended family on your boundaries- too bad. Stand firm. Sorry that you are dealing with this. [/quote]
