    I just wanted to start a little discussion here. My father is an Alcoholic and it's gotten to the point where he is a pathological lier about it. He always says he doesn't drink anymore, yet he continues to do so....I'm only 14...but when this really hurt me was when i was between, i'd say 8-12.....Can anyone here relate w/ me?

    I had a similar problem, just hang in thier and let him figure out himself. You cant change a strong-willed alcoholic

    Blegh wow I'm sorry about your problem.
    I myself don't have an alcoholic in my family but I know a few friends who do so I can somewhat relate to you.

    Honestly, the best thing to do is try talking to him about it; tell your mom how it makes you feel.
    But don't be suprised if this doesn't change his views on alcohol because it's hard to change an alcoholic.
