[quote=Anonymous]OP, you are not going to find the right words to get functional alcoholics to stop acting like functional alcoholics. Instead, explain to your kids what is happening. Explain about addition and peer pressure and how, even though you love them, the grandparents are making bad choices by trying to pressure other people to drink, and they are doing it because their bodies and brains are addicted to it. It's up to you whether you do this in front of the grandparents or not. From a young age and their cousins knew that their grandfather didn't "count" as a grown up watching them in their pool because he "drank too much and got too sleepy to pay attention". It bothered him that we said that, but it bothered us that he would continually invite the kids to jump in before any other adults were around and he was half sloshed. [/quote]
