A Different Look Into Co-dependence

They are good kids.  They are JUST drinking.  Can't understand why the mom is upset about that....it's not like they are using heroin or meth.  Not sure what the problem is...her husband provided a nice life, makes good money, has a nice house, etc.  Can't understand why she wants a divorce.  One week in my life and she would appreciate hers.  Well yeah those boys don't have real jobs but they are mowing lawns.......boys are mid 20's.
Okay then.  Addiction is addiction.  Alcohol can be a drug of choice.  "Her" husband makes my brain click, so I'm pretty sure I know why she left and is getting divorced.  And why she is concerned about her "good" kids only drinking.
Co-dependence has many faces.  And I bite my tongue because sometimes people are not ready to see what is right in front of them.  And sometimes we just appreciate the good.  I am appreciative of the fact that I am not married to an alcoholic.  I'm appreciative of my apartment.  I'm appreciative of what I can see.
