[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trust me, people. If you drink two or three glasses of scotch every night for years,  you will become an alcoholic. Maybe you will be one of the lucky ones who can exist as a functional alcoholic and keep your job, etc. but you will still be an alcoholic. Lots of boomers are going thru this now. Try spending a week with your folks if they drink two or three each night and then let us know what you think.[/quote]Bummer. My MIL told me quite voluntarily that she knows that she is only supposed to have one drink a day (as per medical recommendation) but she by god is going to have two and that's just it.  I don't drink because there's a lot of addiction in my family but I don't get on her about drinking even though I'm concerned about it - who insists that they're having two drinks a day? If you have to count it and defend it, rather than just drinking when you feel like it, that's not a good sign.  But it's her life.  I know there is no point in talking to her about it.  I keep my mouth shut.[/quote]
