Answer #1

Fade into the background. That’s what I used to do. There is little you can do while they are drunk. But in the morning, you can tell them that their drunking brawl was embarrassing….humiliated for yourself…and worse, humiliated for THEM.

Answer #2

Please do not confront them about this at all. This is just a sure way for them to get defencive and their embarrassment will turn into anger and may be directed at you. Try writing them a letter with you thoughts and remember your letter must be “I feel” I wish” etc. never you did this and you acted this way. Then leave it alone for a bit and see if they come to you. If you have a trusted relative speak with them. This isn’t normal behavour and if one or both are alcoholics they will need resources to help them. This is where your trusted adult will help you. But never confront them. Good luck Sue
