mom in jaiil
So i've known for a long time that my mom is an alchoholic, but she just resently got sent to jail for drinking and driving again... This really upsets me especially because i didn;t even have a chance to prepare myself for it. i don't live with her, so that's a plus, and I've always been really close to my dad. but there are just some things that you need a mom for.... SO yesterday i got a letter from her (from jail) and she is acting like everything is perfectly normal. SHould i write back? idk if im ready or not. and if i do should i confront her about her issue, now that she's in jail.... or should i just leave it alone and wonder?

Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Families?
Write to her when you feel your ready, help her with what ever you can just as she would most likly do fo you. Alchoholisim is a desease, and to help get over it most people like to know they have the help and support that they need from freinds and family.
Hope this helps!

From reading this i can sense that your mother has hurt you deeply, and this is something you need to deal with.
Talk to someone close, explain to them excatly how you feel about whats happened and then decide wether to write back.
The first time you do write to her will be very hard and might take a few attempts but you should tell her how you feel without actually being catty or rudde because you obviously still want some kind of relationship with her.
Tell her how much this has affected you and your life and hopefully she will realise what this is doing to you and maybe stop.
I really hope that everything goes really well for you and i hope you have someone to support you through this.
Let me know if everything turns out okay xx

I have no experience with this kind of problem, but can I suggest you right down everything that is bothering you. Once you have cleared your mind, consider writing her a letter asking those questions that you feel need to be sorted out now. Leave anything that can be dealt with for another time, or perhaps when she gets out of jail. Once you have written your letter, read it through and revise it if you feel it needs it. You then have the choice of whether or not to post it to her. Only you can decide when you are ready. I would also suggest talking to someone about how you feel, perhaps your Dad or a teacher.
I hope this helps and I wish you all the best. Good luck.
