Doesn't she fancy getting a job? What is she able to do? Has she expressed any desire to get out there and work?
I know it's difficult to motivate people sometimes. My mother used to sit around the house and drink - she completely refused to get any kind of work. She was a real pain.
It's difficult to know what to suggest as it's really up to her to get off her butt and do something more constructive than gambling. Perhaps you should tell your father about what she's doing - he may be able to offer some kind of advice/help/talk to her. I think that he has a right to know if her life is going like this. ↑ |
Smart advice atomic,i couldn't have said it better myself! ↑ |
Perhaps an intervention of sorts, all the children and mom have a meeting. Tell her she's got a problem and if she doens't fix it then the cats outta the bag to dad. Not fair to him either.
She needs to be busier and out of the house, either a job, voulnteer work, church, support groups, etc. She's the only one that can change her life, but when you all meet then she's faced with doing something about it.
Good luck ↑ |
