[quote=Anonymous]I'll be the naysayer here as the spouse of an alcoholic (who no longer drinks after going to rehab in his late 30s). If you feel this wasn't just a one-time mistake and your sister has a drinking problem, which is sounds like you do, I think she needs the whole family's support and encouragement to address her addiction. I wouldn't tell on her directly, but encourage her to tell your parents. (Sounds like she's leaning that way any way, so maybe doesn't need too much pushing.) Too many families try to shroud alcoholism in secrecy, where it thrives. [/quote]
