Is that a problem with being able to drink? Or a drinking problem like alcholic problem?

You tell them exactly that. Be blunt about it. Say “You have a drinking problem.” But you have to let them know that you are gonna be there with them.

ok my wife has been drinking for 7 yrs now we have 3 children ans they are now seeing what the problem is. I have been to all the meetings alono and also had permision off the local AA to sit in some of there meetings so i can try to understand what the drinker is going though.
But i am getting fed up of telling her that she has a drink problem.

I dont want to leave her for the kids sake but it getting dam close

is there any thing more I can do for her I dont cover up for her and both me and the 12yrs old tell her point blank that she has a problem.
