Divorce is hard on the kids. But being raised by an alcoholic is even harder in my opinion. I grew up with both, and look how I turned out! (haha)
But seriously, I've heard it said in my home group that we change when the pain of staying outweighs the pain of moving on. Even change for the better is hard. Ask anyone who has walked away from an A, there's quite a few of us on here. You'll know when it's time to take action, and like the others said, it's not like it needs to happen overnight. Start small, with the things you can do now, and eventually you will be strong enough to do what you need to do, whatever that ends up being. One day at a time.
