Jeez, I recognize that attitude and fully understand it NOWADAYS, BUT, when I was first going though i actually thought i could control an alcoholic. bottom line is they are autonomous and must come to their own conclusion and decision.
For the wife ashamed of her husbandsdrinking trying to hide/cover up, shame/embarrass hem believing he will change;
is like trying to forcefully move/squeeze toothpaste within the tube worried about seepage on the end in question. Guess what, apply enough pressure and it will seep out somewhere else,maybe worse than initially.

I finally got my act together but it took me admitting that I had a problem with alcohol and only I could change it.
