    Read rats and Willard (I think thats the name) when I was about 16, I think thats when I started not liking rats.

    Hi traf, good advice.

    i have read some heartbreaking posts on this thread but yours has really hit

    home took me 4 hours just to answer if i didnt know any better

    i swear my daughter wrote it the others have answered well you and your family got to be brutal we will and do take advantage

    your mam is scared got to try and talk to her she got a heart some where

    its just got lost at the moment the most important thing at the moment is booze tug at her heart strings

    tell her the past doesnt matter all the wrong she done will be buried

    try and get her to seek help and move on it is very hard for you and her

    hugs babes you just kicked me into reality

    Village,

    Can't really say anything that hasn't been said. You probably need to have a good chat with your siblings, opening eyes if required. Dad then needs to have a united group behind him.

    Ultimately it is down to your mum. If she hides drink, bin it. She'll assume she drank it:o

    Hiding places

    First aid cubby holder in boot of car
    Behind boxes outside.
    Briefcase.
    Large handbag (not mine)
    Laundry basket (Shirl;) )
    Any place Mrs Mac wouldn't need to go, causes panic when she does:eek:

    If/when you talk to her, remember she is probably lying, it's a common theme.

    Traf is right, help from outside is a must, the more the better according to my counsellor.

    Good luck, please post again, just so we know you are OK.


    OVALTINE has helped me sleep at the start, not convinced it still does the job, I think I might just be sleeping normally:j Apart from the 5 wake up every day:mad:

    It was reccommended and my feeling was similar to most of you lot, but when needs must...........:o

    Morning, rat free here :D

    What a fantastic day! I love days like this.

    I was wondering with traf posting those links last night, if we shouldn't have them at the start of the thread, in the first post at the top?
    What do people think?

    Also, there was talk a while ago of the thread name being wrong, open to suggestions from anybody who reads the thread to a better one?
