Today, I came home and saw on our fridge, "Please don't drink anymore, I really worry about your health" written by my 7-year-old daughter. I figured she wouldn't ever find out, so I opened the fridge. Then I found another note on a can that said, "So you're going to drink anyway?" FML

Today, I was looking in the refrigerator for something to drink. I found a jug of lemonade with a piece of paper on it saying "Mom's Lemonade, Don't Drink!" I was really thirsty, so I ignored it and drank the whole jug. My mom is about to have a colonoscopy and had filled it with laxatives. FML
Today, I went into my fridge and someone had drank all the beer. Only my 8-year-old son lives with me. FML
Today, I was telling my teenage daughter about the effects from alcohol, and how she should not give in to peer pressure. While talking, I noticed that she was looking at me funny. There was a wine glass in my hand. FML
Today, I found out that my wife, who is supposed to be a recovering alcoholic, drank an entire bottle of wine and then tried to hide it at the bottom of a garbage bin. To make matters worse, when I confronted her about it, she tried to convince me that our 5-year-old daughter had drunk it. FML
Today, I was packing my son's lunch and we'd ran out of water bottles. I asked my 16 year-old to run to the store. She didn't want to, but gave me one she had. After dropping my son off, my daughter frantically told me she'd made a mistake. I sent my second grader to school with a bottle of vodka. FML
Today, my dad taped a picture of me to the fridge with "Do not feed the she-beast" written on it. FML
Today, I'm taking care of my 12-year-old daughter because my ex-wife thought she could cure our daughter's lactose intolerance by sneaking milk into her soy breakfast. The milk had expired. FML
Today, someone drank a sip of my single serve pasteurized orange juice and put it back in the fridge, ignoring the whole jug of non-pasteurized juice, that I cant drink because im pregnant. I cried. FML
Today, my parents finally realized that I've been sneaking vodka when they weren't home. Note to self: don't let them freeze vodka that's actually 75% water. FML
Today, my 11-year-old cousin walked up to me as I was enjoying a glass of wine with friends at my mother's birthday party. Thinking she wouldn't like it anyway, I let her try. The little fucker drank the entire glass in one go, adding, "Usually, daddy gives me vodka." Good to know what my family is up to. FML

Hi, OP. Speaking as a someone who was once the 7 year old kid suffering at the hands of daddy's drinking, I sincerely advise you to lose the habit. It spells doom in many, many ways. Besides, how hooked are you that you could so easily delude yourself into thinking she won't notice, despite the fact that (and pay attention now) she wrote a note that made it abundantly clear just how much she notices and stuck it on the fridge containing said alcohol in an attempt to get your full attention?? The worst part about living with a drunk is that they don't notice the damage they are inflicting on those around them, partly because they don't remember it. But we do. We notice and remember EVERYTHING. Whatever your situation, it must pretty tragic if your *little girl* knows it has to stop. Alcoholism destroys families. F*** your 7 year old daughter's life for having a father she feels she has to worry about, protect and attempt to heal - it's supposed to be the other way around, you selfish jerk.

When my brother died when I was a kid, my father took to very heavy drinking. It was terrifying-- my sister and I would hide up in a room with each other, scared he'd beat us or something. Drinking worries away does NOT help anything. If your 7-year-old daughter notices this problem, you should act like an actual father and get help to stop drinking. You'll end up doing some mental (if not emotional AND phsyical, depending) damage to her if you don't. **** HER life unless you don't stop drinking.

It is illegal in drink under the age of 21 in the US.

My parents both attend AA and I am proud of them for it. I can only imagine how different (in a bad way) my life would be if they never got help. I bet your daughter would respect you so much if you got the help you clearly need. Get help if not for yourself then do it for her and everyone else who cares about you.

If your seven year old notices that you have a problem, you may need some help. Please don't let her suffer for your decisions!
