FWIW, my H is an ACoA. His mom sobered up when he was 4 or 5. One of the things that MIL that has MIL so livid with me is that 2.5 years ago when H was having some alcohol issues, he suggested I talk to her due to her years of experience in AA. When I tried, she lit me up one side and down the other for 'going behind his back'. The fact that he *told* me to talk to her made no difference whatsoever.
The trouble with having an open mind is that people put things in it.
