really help the situation one finds themselves in. I have an alcoholic sister who moved back to MO just recently.

We all resigned ourselves to her still drinking, but at least, beer only, no hard stuff.

She is hiding how much beer she's drinking from my non-alcoholic sister (staying temporarily with), which if you don't drink, you can smell the beer on people's breath from 100 feet away (I can smell it too).

Hiding it (the drinking) doesn't work. Be an adult and grow up, and at least admit it you are drinking. Sure you're not proud of it (the drinking), but give all of us a break and give us credit for having brains too. The drinkers all seem to revert to their childhood antics, not a fun thing to watch or handle.

At least my drunk sister admits she drinks, but still doesn't admit all she drinks.

Be safe all.
