Can ya blame him for not wanting to talk with someone who's been drinking? He sees a different you than you do at that moment. Just giving you a perspective from someone standing outside the window (and I've been where you are and I've tried talking with those who were already drinking, it's really not fun....). Oh, and the kids who are 12 and 15, I guarantee they've known about mom's problem long before now, I know I knew at a very young age (and my dad never missed a day of work due to his drinking, drank only at night, and, well, I just knew, no one had to argue to let me know. Usually the one drinking is the last to know they have a problem, others know way before we come clean.). Sorry if this is harsh, sometimes we need to really know reality.
