Good question Sarah and as a member of AA I'm glad to say that no one can make you go to AA meetings, everyone there goes to get better and live longer, happier and more productive lives.
Prisons, courts and psychiatric hospitals can advise you to go to AA meetings and/or rehab and sentences can be made more lenient if you follow this advice, but no one can make you go.
Thanks for asking a good question.
When the judge orders you to do 90 meetings in 90 days, you'll wish you have gone voluntarily. If someone who cares about you thinks you drink too much, believe them. No one can make another person stop drinking/drugging. The other person is also risking being charged with assault if they try to forcibly drag you to a meeting. Check it out on your own, see if others stories ring a bell with you. And believe me, coming from a family of drunks, no one thinks they have a problem. Think about the 90 meetings thing and no license and the persons you may kill with your car.
Sorry, no one can force anyone else to really do anything.
If they don't want treatment, no one can force them to take it.
The drunk will continue to be a drunk until he hits bottom, kills someone (or himself), or gets arrested.
By then he won't have any friends or family, he will have screwed them all into leaving him.
Just the way it is.
