Well, to be fair, and nothing at all against AA, many of us here managed to get and stay sober without using AA. So, I don't think it's really fair to assume that just because he isn't using AA that he's not serious about recovery. As I said, I have a little over 2 1/2 years sober and I didn't use AA and I didn't see a therapist or work any particular program. Some people are able to do that and maybe your father is one of them.
