My aunt is a raging alcoholic. She is rarely invited to family functions but even those she attends she is highly inappropriate. (People remember he as the drunk lady from funerals who tries to get dates...) Aside from being inappropriate and embarrassing, she was arrested for assaulting another family member while intoxicated and now half of our family will not speak to her. She lives with my grandmother which further complicates the dynamics.
I do not want to be embarrassed or have to worry about what kind of antics she is going to pull . Also, I don't think it's fair to submit my other family members to her verbal abuse.
I don't want to invite her. When I bring it up to my parents they say "well it's your decision but I feel bad". I don't feel like they have my back. My grandma is going to get an invitation at the same address so she will have access to the details. My sister/MOH said she will lay it out that she's not invited if need be. Help!
