It's sad to see a whole family suffer. I hope that he can change. no one else can do it for him. everyone else should be supportive of his betterment, but no one can ever force anyone to change. it won't work until he says it will. My heart goes out to each one in this family. I hope they find support around them & come to be closer in their time of need. I hope they get lot's of  s.

My best wishes for the family to stay strong and safe through this nightmare. Hopefully, far, far away from that man. Does not matter whether he admits the problem or not. ~~~~~~~ CoffeeOwl  I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant. ~ Author unknown ~ |

The sad fact is that - yeah, he says he wants to "sort it out", but the truth is the father probably knows that sort of comment will perhaps gain him some sympathy from the judge, to give him a more lenient sentence so he can "get the help he needs." And before you know it, you're back at square 1.
I hate to be cynical, but you just see this crap happen over and over and over again...and the cycle continues.
While I hope that perhaps this man does actually mean it, and things will work out happily for everyone in the end, I can only fear that he will sucker them into a false sense of security (again), only to have this monster rear it's ugly head again. I wish the family wisdom, love, and peace to see clearly to make the best decisions in this time of crisis.
What may seem like a problem now may turn out to be a blessing in the end (a little something to keep in mind, for when life gets "bumpy"...)

man i know how this goes first hand actually.... gotta wonder if its the booze or just the personality behind the booze... either way i have learnt that people will not change unless they want 2, and even if they really want to, that change can take a lot of time my best advice is to be there for your friend through it all, reassure her she is safe to vent to you etc you have ur own life for sure, but i'm sure she will need a good friend to help her through it by the sounds of it, you are a great friend tho. stay strong, and hey sometimes the best medicine is a bit of laughter in ur life so remember once in a while to get that friend of urs laughin! bet wishes to everyone involved.
