Alcoholics will continue to deny there's a problem until there is a wake up call. For most, a DUI isn't enough. A car wreck? Maybe. Kids being taken away? Definitely a wake up call. I would call CPS as well.
I know you're a mom, you've probably had the thought of calling CPS already, but the thought of calling CPS on a friend and being the cause of her losing her kids is holding you back. Keep in mind, even though you might be making the call, she's the one making the decision to pop open the next beer, so SHE's the cause of losing her kids. Also, if she doesn't lose her kids temporarily to CPS now (she can get them back if she straightens up), she will lose them permanently later on - either in a wreck, or because they walk away from her. I haven't spoken to my alcoholic mom in over 4 years. Her fault, not mine...
