GunnyG, you are absolutely correct in this.
Alcoholics will deny deny deny that they have a problem. I haven't spoken to my father for almost 10 years because I'm done with him, unless he quits drinking.
My girlfriend in high school was killed by a drunk driver.
Simply put, you need to give her an ultimatum. Go get help, or you need to get out of her life. If her alcholism is affecting how she treats or takes care of her children, it may be necessary to intervene and call Child Protective Services (if the kids are still young).
Simply put, you need to be blunt, and any attempt she makes to "laugh it off", you press back and tell her how it's not funny...it's sad.
Still, she may never take your advice, so you need to do what's best for the kids.
