DrRoberta Dear Dr. Roberta,
I told my stepson that his dad is drinking too much, because I wanted him to take his dad with him to his AA meetings. But, the boy doesn’t want to hear about it. I feel I am in this alone and I don’t know what to do. Please help.

Dear Isolated,
Alcohol causes many marital problems. Fortunately Al-Anon is an organization you can go to by yourself and there you’ll meet other wives in exactly your situation. They will help you cope and offer practical advice. Leave your stepson out of it; it’s too hard for him to deal with this now.
