My boyfriend's dad is an alcoholic...

We live with him and he just sits and drinks and watches TV.

Doesn't ever try and interact with us. Here it is the weekend ...and all he does is sit there.

It's really depressing....Especially cause my 5 year old is around and I hate to see him see this.

Just say NO to TV !!!!!

My A/H does that,too...when he is drinking. He "zones-out" in front of it; I think so people don't try to talk to him...JMO!

Yeah...we are moving tuesday..thank god.

I just feel bad cause this was the time for my boyfriend and his dad to get together and do something...

But he just wants to drink and zone in front of the TV. It's quite depressing.
