[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL is a wino and when she visited after the last baby was born, we just told her that since I was breastfeeding, we weren't keeping any alcohol in the house.[b] It was kind of funny watching her salivate[/b] every evening around 5 (the time when she's used to cracking open the bottle) and then having to be her sober self all night. She'd usually retreat to her room earlier with a book which was another added bonus. While the kids were too young to notice, we did this mainly for ourselves, as she turns into a pathetic buffoon when she drinks. Can you come up with some sort of similar excuse, like you're going alcohol free for X reason and having the temptation around makes it harder? That'll give them a firmer boundary that they can choose to either disrespectfully cross or abide by.[/quote] That's kinda mean.[/quote] NP. Maybe a little. But it's also funny. [/quote]
