Ok, my mom tends to drink occasionally on her days off. I wouldn't mind except so far she's downed eight beers in roughly five hours and there's no sign of stopping.
She drinks her self into a angry stupor, will start to cry, she accuses my siblings and I of hating and not appreciating her, and she calls all her friends and loudly complains about how terrible we are to her. I really love my mom and I don't take advantage of her like she says (I do laundry, clean around the house, take care of our pets, and look after my younger siblings when she's working, I even give her money I get from babysitting and cleaning a church when she's short).
I try to talk to her but she'll say that she's 49 years old and on her day off is entitled to relax how she wants and I need to get off her case and stop telling her what to do. She has a point but I want to spend time with her, not hide in my room from her! What can I do?
I'm 16, by the way.
