The daughter is gun shy i think because the last time she reached out her parents both gave her a hard time for asking me for help.
So, since the child asked that you not "tell" on her, it is okay with you? she doesn't need help now? how long have you known this girl and her alcoholic mom?
Do they ever call someone on their drinking?
you are kidding right? what happens in the meetings has absolutely nothing to do with you. nothing. if she is in a good group they will call her out in a second.
i got painted as the bad guy by everyone.
Well, give me the number and I will call then. I don't care what others think of me as long as a 14 year old needs some help.
I was 12 when my mother finally got the nerve to leave.
Do you have any idea what it is like to live with an alcoholic as a parent?
Read the ACOA board, you might get a clue.
What made this girl think you would help her?
