Parenting While Intoxicated (13x103)

Air date: Feb 12, 2015

Sisters Devin, 24, Riley, 18, and Autumn, 16, say their mother, Linda, has a drinking problem, and it is destroying their family. They say she is always drunk, belligerent and abusive. Linda’s husband, Scott, says Linda has become a burden on their family. Linda admits she’s an alcoholic who sometimes drinks as much as 18 beers a day, along with vodka and taking prescription medications but says she shouldn’t be the only one in the hot seat -- she says Scott has a drinking problem, too. How does Scott respond? Dr. Phil offers tools to help repair this broken family. Will Linda accept help? And, will Linda’s daughters give her one more chance?
