The kids' happiness is less important than their physical safety. This mom is taking her kid's medication, and is intoxicated on various things while supervising them and driving them around? That is what I'd focus on, not how little they're getting for Christmas. QUOTE FROM SELFSEEKING
This is where the children are being endangered, in my opinion also.
When I made the amends to my daughters...one of the things that I really looked at was that I was so wrong for not keeping them safe from my behaviors. Children to me, are born and want nothing but love, security and safety and they deserve it.
