what is the best course of action for the CHILDREN here?
MOM drinks, alot, and is therefore absorbed in self.
MOM goes off to rehab, again to get self sorted.
DAD is dazed and confused - and rightly so.
DAD is freaked out about MOM coming back.
DAD has himself a fling on the side.
MOM returns from rehab and is drinking again within two weeks.
meanwhile........the kids are living in CHAOS, with both parents really caught up in each others stuff AND THEIR OWN....
and they must be so confused and scared and full of self blame............
