He also has become addicted to the computer; sites like facebook and games on facebook like mafia wars etc it's sad and it's the only thing you can have a conversation with him about these days.He shows no affection to his own children or wife and only shows respect to his own family like brothers, brothers kids and wife etc...My mother is very ill and needs to be constantly watched in the night incase she has angina attacks etc..She stresses herself so much over everything and then makes herself ill I try to calm her down but she just puts the blame to me.My brother is 13 and has no ground rules, he stays out when he wants to, steals off me and others, treats my parents like dirt especialy my mother calling her "see you next tuesday" it's disgusting he even hits her sometimes, I also found out he's drinking when out with friends and I do suspect he's smoking dope too, he is out of control and my parents will not ground him or punish him I really think if they don't take action soon he will become a criminal in later years.Even my boyfriend says I act like his parent as I'm constantly on his case trying to keep him out of trouble.I love my family to bits I really do it's just everything has changed and they have changed.

 you could use professional help, see if your family would be into counseling it shoudnt be so bad everyone is doing it these days. the truth is though they will only change if they want to. If your dad has a drinking problem he needs to seek help for that. maybe you can convince your family to get help a good idea is to just film them if they see what they have become it may be enough to get them to change, your going to need a higher authority meaning professionals, in the mean time you could try praying, that usually works for me.
