[QUOTE="goldenguru, post: 287494, member: 1545"] The big question in my mind is, will your mom 'rock the boat' with your dad - or is she too afraid to do something drastic? I'm afraid there isn't much YOU can do, if mom isn't willing to back you up. I am in a very similar situation with my parents. My mom is very badly addicted to pain killers. It is so pathetic to watch. I have talked to them both, begged my dad, and begged him some more to get her some help, but he just enables her behaviors. There is nothing more I (or you) can do, if the spouse is unwilling to take a stand. [/QUOTE]
