My advice is to either to get him to talk about it and see if there is somewhere you can find a solution, you can also mention him that he sets a bad example for your daughter. (Does he want your daughter to marry one day someone who drinks beer after beer?)
Or just try to get him out of the house like at the movie, a walk in the park or involve him in some sport activity... somewhere where there is no drinking involved.
Good luck!

| If this drinking is causing a problem at home, you can contact your local meeting of Al-Anon for support; some of them also have Ala-Teen for older kids, and Ala-Tot for younger kids. They won't tell you exactly what you should think or do - but you will get a lot of information and personal experience examples from the members of the group. (Doesn't cost anything, ever.) |

Hey girl, I feel for you, this very thing has caused so much pain and anguish in relationships. I have to agree with Kelly, Al-Anon is the place to go if someones drinking is bothering you. You didn't cause it, and you can't cure it but when we take our focus off the drinking and bring it back onto ourselves... AMAZING things happen.
1-888-4 Al-Anon you'll find a meeting near you and perhaps a bit of council over the phone. There are fabulous women's meetings out there.

Hi Crystal ~
It is scary to go the first time. When I went they just smiled, and hugged, and let me talk. They didn't blame anything on me, they helped me focus on what I could do for the kids and me, instead of focusing on what I couldn't do about my husband. They are very kind. I still encourage you to try.
My alcoholic is sober right now, but if he started in drinking, I'd go right back to Al-Anan with my kids in tow for Ala-Teen. |
