[quote=Anonymous]OP, your husband's brother is an alcoholic and your mother-in-law drinks too much and your husband is drinking a lot of alcohol on a regular basis. I don't know if he fits the technical definition of an alcoholic but he is clearly dependent on alcohol and he is on his way to becoming an alcoholic if he isn't one already. I'm sorry. I suggest educating yourself about this disease before you do anything. Consider seeing a professional with expertise in addiction and how it affects families in order to work this through for yourself. Obviously your husband is resistant to drinking less so you have to figure out how else you can deal with the possibility that he is an alcoholic. And as you mentioned, this is a disease that people inherit. You need to educate yourself because your kids may have the same struggle some day. I'm sorry you have to deal with this. [/quote]
