[QUOTE=Zeraxify;25406198]My mother have always had a little bit of red wine on the weekends, just one glass no biggie. Like every other Friday, maybe one on Saturday too. No worries about that, why should I care? But lately she's been drinking more and more often, and more and more heavily. Instead of just drinking one glass of whine, she might have 2 or 3 glasses of whine, with some beer and maybe some cider ontop of that. She recently picked up drinking on week days, like today she's had 3 glasses of whine and one beer and she's drunk out of her mind. She's a small woman, she can't take that much. Normally, this wouldn't trouble me but we do have alcoholics in the family, from what I know her dad and her granddad were both heavy drinkers. When I approach her about it, she refuses to listen and often just picks up another subject. I'm actually pretty worried she might get stuck in it, which would be devastating. She has friends who are heavy drinkers.
Now, I'm not saying she [i]drinks every day[/i], not at all. Maybe 2 or 3 times a week, but this has increased so drastically over the last few months that I am starting to worry. How should I approach her about it, Facepunch?[/QUOTE]
She is going down a rough and rocky road, you should talk to her about it. She might not even know she is slipping. Do it while you can nip the problem in the butt rather then having to deal with a gigantic problem later on.
Leave her to it, it'll be more amusing when she's prostituting herself out.

They're divorced, they don't talk anymore.
You really need to talk to your mother about it, before it gets bad. Do it calmly though, try to not have a heated argument.

There really should be an "asshole" rating.
Instead of bringing the world to bear against your mother, try telling her you're not worried about the drinking, that if she wants to have some fun and whatnot, she has every right. But all you hear about is how drinking is bad and makes people wreck their lives. You know your mom's a strong person and you trust her, so you just wanna make sure she knows that if she's ever stressed out or needs a day off from housework, or anything there is that you can do, you're happy to do it.
That way, if it's not a problem you're not accusing her, and you're expressing support and concern, and hopefully you have the kind of family where you love your mother, trust her, and want to help her. She might be more inclined to confide in you if there IS a problem as well, since you're not judging.
The catch is, you have to believe what you're saying and follow through with it.
Get your mom drunk, have her fellatio you

Getting drunk on weekdays by yourself is not okay
My father was a big-time alcoholic. He'd make himself a %50-50 screwdriver around noon most days. It ruined his life.
