Dealing w a person w a personality disorder & addiction means common sense ways of dealing w him go out the window.
Unfortunately judges & therapists see legit fear for my girls safety as run of the mill divorcing couple anger & mark my words there will come a day someone gets hurt badly bc of his drinking & I only hope my kids aren't w him then.
Courts don't care about what's best for kids. They care about appearing fair & in my state that means handing out 50/50 custody. Best for kids? Hell no.
I'm tired of a system that cares ONLY when it is too late. Countless stories about DCYF intervening only after a child is dead or near dead at a parents hands in this backwoods idiotic state make me understand why parents run away w their kids & hide.
In many ways my kids are worse off now than they were when we were together.
