If my AH had asked this my response, in a knee jerk way, would have been "oh hell no". I too am very careful who I live my kids with and to think I would leave them with a stranger who is also in AA would just be a double whammy no for me. I would never leave my kids with a stranger period. I would have to know the RA really really well and really understand where they are at in their recovery, and really really like them (goes for anyone watching my kids) before I would say yes.
