” If (IF) he drinks too much every day, none of us can help and thus we have no business discussing it. “
The issue is not him. The issue is how SB has to deal with his excessive drinking, which she said in the opening post, “He drinks like all the time”. Furthermore, as SB points out, he seems to be quite irresponsible as she said, “everyone constantly asks me about him because I am in E”Y and I am expected to have an idea of his wherabouts.”
Snowbunny,
I am going to reiterate what I and many others have said. That it’s not your problem and you should avoid him. When you uncle and aunt call you to ask about him, just say “I don’t know”. You don’t need any explanation and you don’t owe anyone an apology. It’s their son, they are responsible for him. Don’t let them or anyone make you feel guilty. You have enough on your plate as it is. Focus on that.
