Scenario

When families avoid addressing a member's addiction together

Our family group chat has become this weird performance where everyone shares updates but nobody talks about the fact that Mom's drinking is getting worse and we're all just working around it. My brother sends memes, my sister shares photos of her kids, and I post about work stuff while we all pretend we don't see what's happening.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A family system has organized itself around collective denial rather than collective care.
