Can you force an alcoholic into recovery
Hi. I'll get right to the point. I can't seem to find an answer to my problem, so here it goes.
I have a 57 year old alcoholic brother who is has been living in my mothers home for the past 10 years. My brother has no interest in getting help and my mother's health is failing from this. My brother basically stays in his room and goes on drinking binges which makes him scream uncontrollably during the evening hours for long periods of time. My mother is beside herself and cannot control or help him. She want's desperatly to kick him out if she knew there was somewhere he can go.
QUESTION? Can you forceably remove someone from your home and place them in treatment against their will?
