[quote=Anonymous]We can debate the alcoholism thing or focus on the big picture. She doesn’t want to host her BIL. Her husband wants to pretend her concerns are irrelevant. Her MIL doesn’t want to host this guy herself. OP shouldn’t have to deal with this — full stop. I say this as someone who does host her alcoholic father for very short periods of time (maybe one night). My 13 year old knows he is an alcoholic even though he has never visibly had a drink in front of her or acted drunk. He isn’t fooling me with his vodka in his owala. My husband is ok with this. If he wasn’t, I would 100% not host my dad. Because my husband’s position would be reasonable and rational. Neither my husband nor I would want to host someone who openly drank in our home several drinks a night. We don’t drink regularly at all. It simply isn’t part of the way we want our home to look/feel. That is also ok for us to both feel this way.[/quote]
