I’m a recovering alcoholic, but I live with a loved one daughter who still drinks and she’s verbally and physically abusive to me. I’ve lost one child to this disease and so I enable her because I’m afraid of the same situation. I’ve been around the rooms for 40 years and I just can’t let her go. I I gave her to God so many times but I take her back. What a mom to do.

I'm sorry, but I've lost a mom to this as well. You are enabling HER misery as well as yours. Let me tell you this, there was good that came from us cutting our mom off. My sister, brother and I, all came together. It made us stronger. It sounds like you need to get her committed if she is that insane, I wish I would have done that to my mom.

I've had to be strict with my 28 yo daughter that moved back home. No alcohol in the house period. I no longer allow her to disrespect me bec I respect myself now. I've lost a son and husband to this disease but that's not an excuse anymore to enable her
