Let me say first my mum is the most loving and caring person in the world it is because of her that i have learned to be a great mother as i just followed in her foot steps.
OK my dad is an alcoholic and my mum wasnt but she drank with my dad alot in the end she was drunk by 11 am every.She is very dependant on my father,her mum died when she was 19 and dad became her carer in a way.Mum never got a licence so she is always very bored, trapped inside four walls with 3 teenage kids and an arseh0le husband!Any way one day she imbarresed her self so bad she said she was giving up the drink for good all us kids got excited we only dreamed of this day.Now we have got used to always having happy normal smart caring mum everyday and she always bring up drinking and acts upset that she cant do it.she says things like
'when i die i hope you know i had a miserable life because of you arseh0les"how do i make her understand it for the best? alcohole has made us miserable for far too long!

also my mum wouldnt go to my aunts house for the new year because she said she cant handle being around drunk people cause they act so dumb and different so i turned around and said maybe then you know how we feel? we had no choice but to be around you drunk everyday and she was like oh thats different you'd dont know what its like to be drunk and having fun so it shouldnt bother you's.Now she has turned around and said i never said i was quiting i said i was drying out abit then you kids decided i wasnt drinking anymore and thats a lie she told us she was quiting.She makes us feel so bad that she doesn't drink anymore and i just want her to be happy about her quitting its so good for all of us so why cant she see that? she also said she wouldnt be bored if she could drink through the day.

also my dad puts pressure on her to drink he's always like buy a cask of wine they are just the kids they cant tell us what to do, he always comes to us one on one and says your mum wants to drink she only isnt cause you kids wont let her.

You need to get in touch with that spin-off group of Alcoholics Anonymous, Adult Children of Alcoholics. Just start by looking up AA in the newspapers or phone books or at the library. One phone number will hopefully lead to another until you get the advice you so sorely need from the people best qualified to give it. Good luck and God bless you all.

there is a group call Al-Anon it's for family and friends of drunks. you need to talk to some one and get help for yourself. Mom needs to hit rock bottom before she could get help for herself.

I hate to say this, your mother is being selfish and going through with drawls.
She need to be in AA, with other people who are going through what she going through.
Good Luck.
