Two nights a go I screamed in horror as I watched my dad choke my mom and then chase her with a knife. I cant stand this anymore. Alcohol is killing him and he doesn't want to admit it
he needs help but if he doesn't want it I know he won't get better. Im holding on to the last thing I have,hope. So far it hasn't helped. What can I do?

Were the police called? Was he put in jail, even for at least one night? Does he have a court date? If not, then perhaps one of you should have called and what not to have him court ordered to go to A.A.

Other than that, there's no way you can have him go. He has to be willing to admit he has a problem, and willing to go get the help he needs. But here is some information that may help you, if not a lot, then maybe a little.

also, perhaps call a local aa organization and ask them for advice. They are use to this kind of thing and may be able to give you some sort of help.

Thank you but if he doesn't want help I cant force him. My mom doesn't want me calling anyone either
