What do you do with a mom that is addicted to beer?

Question

My mom always goes out. She never relizes that she is hurtin me. I don't know what to say to her everything I do say she just blows away. What should I do?

Answer 1

Your mom is being very selfish and irresponsible. It's hard to say what to do because usually people with a drinking habit have to realize it on their own.
Maybe just try to talk to her again, that her drinking is going to drive you right out of her life.

Answer 2

if you've already tried talking to her about it, and she's blown u off, there's nothing u can do about it. she'll eventually hit rock bottom, but, that could take years. if your old enough, move out asap. she's never going to change unless she's forced to do so. and that's usually when the law gets involved. some people are not meant to be mothers, mine wasn't, and it sounds like yours isn't either. if you're not old enough to live on your own, take her to court and get emancipated,where's your dad, or another family member u could stay with. a best friend even, like i did. don't run away though, they'll lock u up, and that sucks BIG time. try harder if you and your mom are close, or if this behavior has just started. but the best advise i can give is, let her be, live your life for you, and don't think twice about her if she hasn't got the time for you. it is definately the one relationship in your life that matters, but you'll be a better person in the end by learning from her mistakes, and not making the same ones. i'm a much better mom than mine ever was, or will be. alcohol is a very destructive thing if not used responsibly. if you think she won't hurt you start dumping out her beer or alcohol, if she's a violent drunk, get away asap. good luck, and just to let you know, my mother and i only speak when we have to, xmas, or when someone dies. but i'll tell you this, i'm way happier without her in mine or my childrens lives.

Answer 3

Well it is not the best thing but if she leaves you allone then maybe try taking some of her empty beer bottles or cans and spread them out in the room and when she comes home act like you drank them and tell her that you are learning these things from her and that at least you are at home and not running around drinkin and driveing..... This may piss her ooffff but eventually will open her eyes to the problem she created.....

Answer 4

Go out with her and have a few beers with her. Loosen up have some fun. She could be addicted to a lot of other things that are worse than beer.

Answer 5

It sounds as though she doesn't have time for you, right? Is there anyone else you could live with? It's very, very hurtful for a girl to feel unwanted and uncared about. Are you fed and clothed properly? Have you thought about where and with whom you'd like to live? There are alternatives. Probably none very good but there are some.

Answer 6

HIt her with a one-two. Right square in the nose. That'll knock some sense into her. Actually I have no clue. The above doesn't work, I tried it on my alcoholic dad.

Answer 7

there may be a number of reasons why . if she is an alcoholic, there is nothing you can do but wait for the inevitable crash. look for support groups for children of alcoholics. it helps to be around people who know what your going through even if they are clumsy in showing it. i've gone to AA meetings for several months and don't always agree with what i hear, but it beats the alternative.

Answer 8

Grab a beer and show her what shes like when she drinks. And when she says something to you tell her she does it why can`t you.. Then tell her how you feel. Maybe she`ll slow down or stop if she sees you doing it!!

Answer 9

ask her to drink beer in the cans at home. because its cheaper than going out. and you can save the cans. since it sounds like shes a serious drinker, you should be able to save up enough cans to move out. and get a life of your own.

Answer 10

you mean an alcoholic?? tell her how you feel. if she is any kind of good mother at all she'll see the horrible example she is setting for you and will seek help. otherwise, call AA and have a meeting over at your house.
