Addiction makes for a fun family discussion

I may never know how I came to be in this position. I think it is because I'm taking a class about addiction and so I had to go to an AA meeting. I feel like I keep talking about addiction. I feel surrounded by addicts. But I have to say that that AA meeting I went to was a life changing event.

I have someone in mind to take to a meeting of Overeaters Anonymous or even Debtors Anonymous. I really feel like he would benefit from it. The trouble is that you can't make anyone get better who isn't ready to get better. I don't know when he'll be ready. I think everyone who knows him is ready for him to be ready. How do I tell him that I'm so willing to go to every meeting with him? I want to support him. I'm just not sure that there is any part of his current actions that I currently can support...
