Glad to see you, but sorry for 'why' you stopped in.
Ann said it pretty well IMO:
Dolly said it well...you know what you are dealing with, you know the drill
so it's entirely up to you how you want to proceed. If I had a concern at all,
it might be "how does all this affect your precious little girl?"
And you said:
Lets see what comes next but be sure my friends that she is
our priority in everything we do.
Since Rain seems to have a track record of relapsing periodically, I would suggest
that you not even set a date, until he can show you at least TWO years of contin-
uous time sober and clean and showing progress in himself during those two
years.
Children are little sponges that absorb EVERYTHING that is going on around them,
and I am sure even though she may not be able to say what 'it' was, she was
affected by those times that he relapsed. If you have any doubts as to how much
a child can be and is affected, go read for a bit in the "Adult Children of Addicted/Alcoholic
Parents":
Adult Children of Addicted/Alcoholic Parents - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information
It will be quite an eye opener.
I am glad you have come back. Please keep posting and let us know how you are
doing as we do care very much.
Love and hugs,
