Yuppers... my AH told that one to my neighbor this weekend. "She won't support me NOT drinking... so why should I bother trying to stay sober? She's taking away my family and ruining my home... she's making me drink."

Neighbor said to me, "You really won't support him?"

I clarified it with, "No, he asked me to monitor his drinking and remind him that he only wants to drink 3. He wants me to tell him to stop when he opens the fourth beer. I told him that's not supporting, that's mothering."

Good god.
