[quote=Anonymous]Please listen to those in the thread who have dealt with alcoholism in the family. I have alcoholics in my family. The PPs who said your DH needs to have the conversation asap with his brother are correct. For your part, stop serving alcohol, tonight. If she asks why, your husband needs to say it out loud and directly. She won’t like it . so? It’s your home and your children. You and your kids don’t need to watch someone get trashed and pick fights. Nor should you enable it by serving the drinks. She won’t want to come where there is no alcohol anymore. and if she sneaks your booze, she’s out. Sorry if it seems harsh. but alcoholics or those on the path to alcoholism need help from AA and they need honest direct communication. It is the compassionate thing to do. Ducking it won’t help anyone. Sorry OP. [/quote]
