Am I Wrong For Being Upset That My Aunt Is Drunk Most Of The Time?

[Cindy1302]

I grew up around my father who was a raging alcholic. My parents got a divorce and them my mom became an alcholic. I lived with her until a few months ago. Her drinking was one of the biggest reasons I moved out. I thought it was over, but my aunt was in a very unhealthy living situation, so I asked her if she wanted to come live in my house with me. She jumped on the offer. It was one of the biggest mistakes of my life. I've realized she's drunk almost everyday by 12pm. She's not really mean or anything, but she gets very emotional, and intense when she's talking, and it just makes me uncomfortable. I talked to her once when she was sober. I asked if she's been drinking, because she slurs her words a lot. She told me that it's her sinuses, then she gave Me a sarcastic "im sorry I have bad sinuses". I know that's bs but I just dropped it. Well, she went to the bar a couple of weeks ago, and asked if I could pick her up. I didn't really mind, because it's better than her driving drunk. Well, two times since then, she came home drunk, and she had driven home. I guess she thinks im too stupid to notice. Especially because she can barely walk down the hall without having to hold on to the wall. I asked this on another forum, and someone told me to mind my own business. I think that's ridiculous, because it's obviously my business if she's putting innocent people's lives at risk. Also she's making me uncomfortable in my own home.

Is she falling because she's frail or drunk?

Best get her to book an appointment with her GP, to discuss her sinus problem.

If I had you around love I think I'd be wasted most of the time.

As Canary sais.  If she kills someone you will feel absolutley terrible and blame yourself for the rest of your life.

If you suspect that she has been driving whilst drunk, you are right that she should be stopped.

The only problem is that the police will need to catch her actually driving whilst drunk, or be able to prove that she is guilty of DUI.  A call to the police is best made as she exits the pub/drinking establishment.

She will be furious, but drinking and driving is not only dangerous for the driver but for everyone else on the road, too.
