[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 705220, member: 1233"] What were the goals or reasons for him to move home in the first place? What progress is he making toward these goals? Maybe it is time to discuss these and what his intentions are regarding these goals and how long he intends to live with you? It seems to me that just talking about his drinking isn't going to accomplish much. He needs to build a life, not just not drink. So maybe it is time for him to start working toward some goals, and if he cannot, maybe he needs to start looking for a place to live and to have a date to move out by that is sooner than expected. Progress or move out. It can be progress toward sobriety or toward whatever life he wants, but forward progress is needed, something besides hiding in his room all day, hiding from life. This is just a thought, I don't know if it is helpful at all. [/QUOTE]
