Alcahol Abuse

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? IL

My ex wife and I married when we were very young. Since the divorce she has begun drinking and going to bars, but is only 20. I do not want her to stay out all night drinking when she has our daughter. Can the court send her to counseling?

I asked the OP that for a reason. See if you can figure out the reason.

You must be 21 to drink, in a bar, in Illinois.

Nothing stated by me should be taken as giving you legal advice or forming an attorney/client relationship. The devil is in the details after all.
