A person who supports another person's bad or dangerous habits. Enablers tend to fear calling others on their destructive habits because these "others" tend to be friends, family or others close to the enabler. Thus, rather than risk losing the love, respect, friendship or contact with the person, the enabler chooses instead to play it safe and watch the other slowly destroy themselves or others through their own actions.
