Voting Question: How can i help my mom stop drinking?

31 January 2012, 4:41 pm

Well, i don't want to say to much because i love my mom and don't want her to get into any trouble, but i think this information will help you understand why i need help. My mom has always had problems with alcohol but this is the worst. My mom babysits for a few teachers at a high school and some other parents. Not to many kids but she has up to 11 kids, including her 4 of her own, at a time. Anyways, i got home and everything was normal, Little kids running around and some kids playing wii. I went to my room for 10min and then i went downstairs and herd my mom calling for my little sister. I thought it was kindof strange because she knows that she wont get home till 1/2 hour after me. So i went to her room and i see my mom sitting on the floor next to her bed with a baby laying on her lap in a very uncomfortable position. As i got closer i realized that she was hammered. She was so bad that she had fallen and busted open her forehead and didn't know what i was talking about when i asked her what happened. The after math of all that is me trying to get my mom to hide in the bathroom when the parents got there so she didn't get the police called on her. That didn't work, all the parents found out and for some reason some think that my moms boyfriend hit her. Luckily, child services have not shown up. I talked to my mom after she sobered up and she realizes that she made a mistake and both me and my older brother let her know how stupid what she did was. She promised she was done drinking, and she lost almost all of her babysitting kids. But that still wasent enough about 30 min ago i saw her trying to sneak a bear and she had several kids in the van she was about to drive, 3 not even her kids. I explained that she obviously has a problem and that she needs help, she agreed. So here i am. Most people would just try to get her into rehab, but guess how much that cost. about 3x what we can afford. Any ideas are appreciated, thanks.... Read More »
