[quote=Anonymous]Why would you talk to either your step mom? Unless she is voicing concerns about his drinking, I wouldn't go sticking your nose into his business. Is his drinking negatively impacting your family? Is it causing disruptions to the visit? If not, you don't go behind his back to gossip about him. If you are actually very concerned, then talk to your dad. If this is a new concern you have, then you owe it to him to speak to him directly about your concerns. Do you visit them often, are you actively involved in their life? I would suspect the increased drinking is more just a symptom of increasing depression, as might be the insomnia. I wouldn't make this about the drinking, I think your concerns are misguided and you are missing the bigger picture. Substance use is a key sign of depression in men. [/quote]
