[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 481561, member: 59"] Kathy this may be unpopular but just to keep peace I would probably take her but make it perfectly clear that if there is any problem she would be asked to leave and that if she didn't think she could act appropriately tell you now. I have found in the past that by being up front with difficult child in this manner and telling her what I expected she usually performed well. If that doesn't make you comfortable then don't do it. When difficult child was in treatment I did go to al-anon meetings, sometimes several a week. They encourage family members to attend and I did in support of difficult child. We even went to meetings that were held at the same to as her AA meeting, husband and I went to ours and she went to hers. We did everything we could to show her we supported her sobriety. Hopefully you can find some that you find helpful at least for now. Nancy [/QUOTE]
