My DM has an on/off problem with binge drinking, she also has learning difficulties so does lack capacity to an extent and needs a degree of support with day to day things as if left to her own devices she would be unwittingly reckless and not think of consequences.
She has been doing well recently after i have been helping her with budgeting her money, taking her shopping, ensuring her bills are paid and providing alot of support despite being 8 months pregnant, she hadn't drank in well over a month which is great for her and she was making good progress.
An agreement was made within the family that her sister would stop giving her physical cash, which inevitably gets spent on alcohol.
Her sister has broken her side of the agreement for the fifth time and given her cash which has resulted in mum falling off the wagon and going AWOL.
AIBU to be absolutely livid with her sister and have nothing more to do with her on account that she's enabling a vulnerable person to self sabotage.
I understand DM is an adult but she has learning difficulties, her sister doesn't.
