The biggest concern here is that their "rock bottom" is going to somehow involve the kids and that's something none of us want to see happen. Thus the reason for trying to figure out a way to make them WANT to get help before things go that far.

If there are kids involved you can try CPS or the police department. They might be able to do something. It is hard dealing with addicts. My cousin was a drug addict and didn't stop until she was arrested. She was ordered to drug treatment and then counseling. I heard she is not going to her counseling sessions, so I am sure she will be back in jail. She has two kids that were taken away by the state. Her parents are trying to get custody of them. I feel bad for her kids but I am pissed at her for her poor life choices.
