[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sister is an alcoholic, has been for 35 years. It’s gotten so bad the last 10 years that she can’t drive anymore or go out alone due to anxiety. She has two adult children, both females. My mother was there for the children a lot. The girls witnessed their mother get arrested for public drunkenness, fall down stairs, pass out a lot. One example is when they were elementary school age they would call my mother because they couldn’t wake their mother up. That had to be tough. Currently my mother, their grandmother, is sick and needs a lot of help. There’s three daughters and six grandchildren. The only ones not there for her are my alcoholic daughter and her two children. No cards, no calls, nothing. I can’t understand it. [/quote] It’s not really the grandchildren’s job to care for their grandparents. Sorry their mother isn’t stepping up, but would you really expect her to?[/quote]
