I’m absolutely head over heels in love with Mom! Chuck Lorre has hit another home run! He’s a modern day Norman Lear! Stay with the show ladies you all are outstanding!! I grew up with an alcoholic father and it tore my family apart. This show really depicts what the alcoholic personality can do to a family.
