The high point of our year is about here. It's an AA function, but there's lots of Alanon participation at it. I've been attending it for 21 years and we [my wife and I] have been attending as a couple for 20 years. We'll be taking in as many of the Alanon meetings as we can. Some of the guys I sponsor have teenage children so I'll be suggesting Alateen to them. I might even go to an AA meeting or two or ten. All the guys I sponsor will be there and I imagine that all the ladies she sponsors will also be there. We always suggest to the people we sponsor that they take in a bit of alanon also. Whatever happens, I'm sure we'll learn something.
