[QUOTE="Lil, post: 654871, member: 17309"] I would be. Kids experiment. Kids drink. These things are to be expected. But to get throw-up, pass-out and black-out drunk? That's concerning, especially in light of the family history. He's old enough to comprehend the genetic factor in addiction, but unfortunately young enough to think he's invincible and it'll never happen to him. I wish I had advice. Other than making HIM clean up his own mess, placing a curfew (although 8 seems pretty early even under the circumstances), and pointing out that his brother didn't think he would ever develop a problem - until he did, I don't really know how I would handle this.
