I have basically had 2 toddlers and a 7-year old by myself for 1 year because of it, and I am tired, but it is better than putting the kids in an unsafe situation.

I think it also showed me what he would/wouldn't fight for. I told him no kids unless supervised, and he never even contacted me for supervised visits. So. I guess what I am saying is - do what you think you need to do to keep the kids safe. Because, chances are, his drinking and being mad at you will be more important than actually fighting you on it.
I do have a journal started, it goes back to 2009. We are not divorced and there is no custody agreement in place just a support order.
