Today, I have to make a decision. I either drive my dad around during the day so he can drink, or I let him drink and drive so I can focus on studying for my exams. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, like every day since my diagnosis, I've had to choose between two impossible options. Either I deal with debilitating headaches where I cannot focus, or I feel so drowsy that I cannot focus. My finals are in a week and I can't study. FML
Today, I had to pick up my dad because he was too drunk to drive home. Drive his wheelchair home, that is. FML
Today, my father yelled at me for changing one of his two programmable seat positions in his car because he uses both. Apparently, #1 is for sober driving and #2 is for high/drunk driving. Go dad. FML
Today, my dad wants a divorce. I can either stay with my wine-loving mom or move 300 km away with my dad. FML
Today, I was so bad at maintaining a conversation that the only way for the other guy to put up with me was to drink. He was the designated driver. He would rather risk drinking and driving than being sober around me. FML
Today, I had to leave my ACT prep class ten minutes in to pick up my drunken father from his best friend's baby shower. I picked him up along with a bill for the damage. FML
Today, I got fired. By my father. He wants me to drive him to work tomorrow. FML
Today, my dad decided to have a little father and daughter bonding time. Unfortunately, his idea of bonding involves him sitting around at home, getting piss drunk, and falling asleep. FML
Today, I decided to visit my dad. I haven't seen him in a while so I wanted to give him another chance to be an actual dad to me. Apparently, getting drunk and getting it on with his girlfriend while I was there was more important than spending time with his daughter, who he hasn't seen in almost a year. FML
Today, I volunteered to be my brother's designated driver. I told him throughout the night that I wasn't drinking, but he ended up leaving me at the bar and going to his friend's house in a cab for more drinks, taking my keys along with him. FML

Buy some booze, stay at home and have a drunken study session with the old man!

Sounds like you need to consult somebody you trust, OP. This is serious.

He's a grown ass man. U shouldn't gave to be playing babysitter. If I were in your shoes I'd tell him exactly that and that you need to study so he needs to make his own decisions and hopefully he will make the right one. But really, you can't be responsible for his actions

You should brin the books with you and while he's drinking study

Option 3: Sit him down have a heart to heart talk with the old man and tell him that you care too much about him to watch him hurt himself. Offer to help him find help. This sounds like his dad has a drinking problem and he needs to be confronted about it.

maybe your dad should take responsibility for himself since youre clearly trying to do something with your life and he should be an adult

OR you could deny him access to your car and tell him to find his own damn way to get around

Never need to study for exams if you read the book Before classes start back up and then pay attention about 50% of classes and you'll ace it every time without fail.

If I were you, I'd let him drink and drive. It shouldn't be, and isn't your responsibility if he has a crash or gets fined.
