Unhappy Did anyone catch Dr. Phil yesterday?

It was about a woman, her alcoholic husband and their 15 year old son. Very sad to hear the son talk about how he has seen his dad passed out more times than he can count, how he is embarrased to have friends over, how he has never known his dad sober until the past 5 months, and only b/c he has to wear a SCRAM around his ankle, per court order. But the saddest was the 15 year old's collection of vodka bottles on a shelf in his bedroom. He said that each bottle represents a time when he kept his dad from drinking. Basically, he found his dad's stash and poured it out. Very heart-wrenching to think that he could be my kids in a few years.
