my husband drinks indoors every single day. I have learnt to let him go in this respect because there is nothing I can do. I have 7 children, but one of my daughters is drinking alot and leans on me to have the children. As I woory non stop about them I take the responsibility and won't let go, but as I am elderly I get tired and she does not seem to care. She is a lovely girl otherwise, she was in an abusive relationship so I am glad she is out of that but she seems to to be getting more self centred and takes her new friends everywhere and does not even offer me a lift. As her youngest is 6 I worry all the time so she knows this. Sometimes I want to let go but am frightened of the consequencesi.e drink driving etc. My husband likes her drinking as when she visits out comes the drink. I have 2 good supportive other daughters but she annoys them and says don't be so soft. what do other people think
