Actually, by reaching out for support and reading up on the subject, you're off to a good start. Welcome to SR. I just read some of your other posts.
We have a lot in common. My Father was an alcoholic, my second marriage was to an old flame that was a heavy drinker.... at first... The difference is both my children were from my first marriage of 13 years.
Keep posting, learning and getting support. You need to be strong and make the right decisions for yourself, son and step daughter. I'll share a post from the sticky section that did wonders for me, I followed each step as though my sanity... and my childrens sanity... depended on it.
The sober parent has the extra responsibility for the emotional health and welfare of the children. It makes it harder but also gives us purpose.
