Scenario

When siblings have different approaches to a parent's addiction

My brother and I are both dealing with our dad's drinking problem but we handle it completely differently - he enables and I set boundaries - and it's creating this tension where we're almost competing over who loves Dad more.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Family members are using different strategies to cope with a loved one's addiction, and their approaches are creating conflict between them.
