We will help you get your mom off drugs!

A young guy that is 23 years of age I know loves to get drunk…in fact he can drink a 24 case of beer in just one sitting. I know the signs of an alcoholic because, a close family members is a recovering alcoholic…you know, hiding the liquor, drinking alone, feeling bad about drinking and etc. This young man says he doesn’t feel bad about his drinking, he doesn’t drink alone, and he doesn’t feel bad about it and doesn’t see anything wrong with getting “messed up” and “stupid drunk” every weekend or several times a week if that is what he chooses to do. He just admitted recently that he is a drunk, but that it doesn’t affect him holding down a job and taking care of his personal business. I see it as a possible problem because, I have witness him in his drunkenness; he gets into fights with innocent people, he grab some woman’s butt one time at a beer fest and then he refused to apologize, he is either really nice or really mean and hostile when drunk, he will lose his wallet and phone…there were two instances where he got so drunk that he landed him in the hospital and another time he was stranded somewhere unknown in the dead of winter. This guy tells me that it is “normal” for his culture to drink (he is Mexican) and that it’s something he will slow down with age, but I beg to differ. Knowing how alcohol addiction can affect the addict and the loved ones, it’s not something that you wake up one day and say “I won’t drink anymore” it progresses. So if he has been drinking since the age of 15 and he is 23 now, at one point does he think he will be able to “slow down?” Esp. if he sees nothing wrong with it and his friends and family are drinking to drunk as well. I told him that it’s not enough to just have a job and take care of business, if he continues to think that drinking to get drunk is a way of having fun, he will ruin not only his life, but his health as well…his mother has talked to him about it, but he won’t stop…he says he won’t rather he will just “slow down” as he gets older.

What do you guys think? Is he right about just being a drunk and not an alcoholic? Is there a difference (I think it is based on my research and personal exp. in dealing with a loved one suffering from liver disease due to alcoholism)?

I have their costumes all ready and had planned to take them around the neighbourhood with their trick-or-treat bags as soon as it is dark, but my wife says I’m drunk and is threatening to have her fat mother come over and sit on me so I can’t leave the house.

My dad gets drunk and becomes very angry and abusive. Not really towards us girls (his daughters) but My brother and him do get into fist fights quite often and my dad beats up his girlfriend’s SEVERLY. That is why my mother left him after 22 years and that is why his current girlfriend left him. We can’t sit him down and have a serious conversation with him and tell him we are worried about him or afraid of him because then he will get angry again and blame it on us or tell us he is going to kill our animals or he will tell us to get out. What should I do with this situation. He is making everyone’s life HELL. Thanks.
Also…we have thrown him in jail well OVER 20 times and everytime the cops either release him that night or the following morning and he is after us for putting him there. We have thrown him in jail so many times that he has had to do Anger Management for 1 year and he still holds that against us. I have contacted an undercover cop to ask what to do and they said that there is really nothing they can do until one of us is extremly injured. Some of us can’t make it on our own at the moment. He knows that and that’s why he tells us to get out. He knows we will be homeless.
Also…my mother moved to Texas and is now with a new man. We live in Colorado..she just left us. His current girlfriend has no place to live, she is staying with her friend. My dad’s parent’s know about the abouse and when we tell them, they just shake their head but never offer advice. We have no one to help us really. I know this is bad but all 3 of us kids dropped out of school due to the lack of parental guidence in the house. My family on my mother’s side also know about the abuse but as well, are unwilling to help us. They were unwilling to even help my mother, that’s why she escaped by meeting a man on the internet and moving in with him.
Also, the local homeless shelters are full. I’m looking for someone to give me an answer or advice to out smart him and put him in jail for a LONG time or change him from his EVIL ways

and why? Do they realize 18-20 year olds are officially adults under the law? Should that bracket of adults be treated like like criminals and not citizens? Have they ever thought about that? If anyone drives drunk or commits crimes from alcohol, its always bad whether your 18, 21, 55, or 100. Shouldnt it be made illegal for them too since lots of them also to the same thing? Maybe the fatalities of drunk driving will go down.
Do you think its fair for a few idiots to ruin it for everyone including the responsible ones?

What would be the proper response, to a random drunk shirtless individual, that is screaming obscenities/insults proclaiming my mother is a transgendered whore?

I think they’ve become far more neoprohibitionist over the years.’”

MADD has become “overzealous”

she also said ‘I thought the emphasis on .08 laws was not where the emphasis should have been placed’

What kind of a person do you think she is?
Brian the brain, you’re saying nobody has the right to criticize MADD? Not even their FOUNDER? Thatt’s who she is

Would somebody please think of all the children, that Bush could have run over and killed, during his drunk-driving days?

Where was M. A. D. D., when the country needed them?

M. A. D. D. = Mothers Against Drunk Drivers

I don’t remember, I watched it long ago. The British kid hangs out with these boys n they spy on these girls changing. Then when the boy grows up he gets a job as a factory worker, then a postman. He meets a girl who takes him on her house, they have sex, but she has some disease that makes her die. Later, the boy becomes an alcoholic and slaps his mother

Who’s mother was mad?

about the # of national or regional MADD officers/directors who’ve been arrested for drunk driving vs. the # of national or regional MADD officers/directors who’ve lost a loved one or been injured as a result of drunk driving? If you have such information, please direct me to the appropriate source. Thanks.

So I’ve been having a problem with my husband driving home when he’s had too much to drink. He probably goes to the bar 2 or 3 times a week..which is fine with me because he goes for pool league and I gives me a quiet house to study in.
Last thrusday he came home and it was obvious that he should’ve have driven. I was so mad and so disappointed in him. This is not the first time, or the second or third time that this has happend…I wish I had some sort of consequence for his actions…the only thing I can do is tell him that he’ll be in jail, that he’s going to hurt someone, that he’s going to have huge fines for when he gets caught again (he got a DUI about 2 years ago). I always tell him that I’ll give him a ride, one of his friends even offered him a ride last thrusday and he turned it down! This seems to happen every couple months..and he always says that he’s going to try harder to be good..but then it happens again.
He will tell me “I know I’m in the wrong.” And by him saying that he thinks that makes it ok just because he KNOWS it was wrong.
I don’t know how to get it through his brain!!

Help!

My wife’s grandmother was smoking in OUR car with OUR kids in it.

When I found out (I was drinking all afternoon) I called her up and chewed her out like something fierce.

Now my mother-in-law is being all pissy.

She breastfed her 6 week old baby while drunk and was charged with child neglect. http://www.myfoxal.com/dpp/news/national/North_Dakota_Mother_Charged_With_Child_Neglect_Allegedly_Breast_Fed_Baby_While_Drunk_297633 Do you think this is deserved? I personally do not.

One night he comes home and kills the mother and then shoots himself and the little girl goes to a new family.

who other then mothers is trying to solve teen drunk driving issues?

and then it’s like “damn! im swerving like a mother!”

I got very drunk at the weekend and verbally abused my girlfriend. Although I dont remember a thing she has told me everything I said and it was vile & disgraceful. I feel totally ashamed, there is no excuse for it and I’m so worried that it might happen again. Is there anywhere I can get counselling for this? She’s a wonderful girl, mother of my kids and I’m so scared that if it ever happens again she will leave
