[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The big picture is that your family needs a better way to deal with your father's behavior. But in the short term, give your mom a break. You can see that she adores her grandchild and you taking a stand will deny her time with that grandchild. It's not going to change your father or make her life any better. Give her this gift. [/quote] Agree. For long term, you absolutely need to arrange for times for your mom to come visit you solo, for her to visit your sister's family solo. If dad has to come along, he had to behave and can't expect five meals. Your family need to be firm about this and stand up for your mom. Anything less is enabling your alcoholic father. I strongly suggest you and your sister get in touch with Al-Alon. You guys needs support and tools to deal with this toxic situation.[/quote]
