John,
The bottle gets put away 2130 hours on weekdays and stays out all weekend.
I'm usually up pretty early because it's the only time of the day I can get
any real work accomplished without interruptions from either the wife or
my phone.
This isn't about the haves and the have knots. This is a simple pursuit to
accomplish something that is extremely difficult and beyond the means and
abilities of most people. Why should you, or anyone for that matter, have
the power to prevent her from doing this? She has a right to do this. She has
the right to either succeed or fail without you or anyone else telling her
she can't at least attempt this.
I will now step down from the soap box.

Rummy,
If I remember correctly the only Rhodie on enforced meds was the dearly
departed Mr. Ed. Since the time stamp on your post was 4:31 am I will
assume
you were pretty far down the bottle at that time and so will overlook your
error as such. Also isn't this the same sailor Hank-5 (not sure) wrote
about
some months ago soliciting funds for repairs because she came off second
best playing bumper cars with a freighter? Obviously her home schooling
(which I consider an oxymoron by the way) didn't include a copy of
Chapman's
Piloting. I agree with Ben C on this one, jail her parents for child
endangerment. If their address was in a trailer park, child and youth
services would already be involved. I am sick of seeing the haves thumbing
their noses at the rules that are shoved down my throat everyday. It's
about
time they got a taste of there own medicine.
