I have a 36yo step son who just will not quit drinking.  He has been in rehab 5 times and is currently in his 6th and is still drinking.  It is an impossible situation as everyone has turned their backs on his behavior except for his dad who still provides a soft place for the "child" to land.  He basically has lost everything.  Today I had to tell Dan that either Tom lives at the house or I do.  Not both.  As we speak Tom is very drunk, missed a court date today for parole violation from his drinking and is currently raiding his estranged spouses' house.  This is the honest to God truth.  Your show was timed perfectly; however, no matter how crazy it makes his Dad, Tom will always be Daddy's boy and he will care for him.  Thank you.
