[QUOTE="in a daze, post: 695216, member: 15832"] Drinking alone in his room...and consuming a whole six pack...not good. Drinking during the day...and before work...not good. He's drinking at inappropriate times. Not to say that he has a problem, or maybe it's in the early stages. It will all come out eventually, whether you drink in front of him or not. That being said, we can't ever drink in front of my son for along, long time, and maybe forever. We didn't drink in front of him after he first went to rehab 5 years ago, but it didn't make much of a difference in the long run, as we moved him out a year and a half later and he went to rehab and then sober living, where he remains. So we don't have this problem anymore, as he doesn't live with us. When we go out to dinner as a family, it's a booze free affair. I don't like it, not one bit, but that's the way it is. But your situation is not as severe, and should you not be able to do what you like in your own home as long as it's not immoral or illegal? Maybe you need an opinion from a professional. Although I am reluctant to bring issues about drinking to my therapist because she's biased....she's a complete teetotolar...Lol! [/QUOTE]
