I know it is early but there will be a need to develop practical strategies for when the going gets tough and he is intoxicated
Thank you. I have some measures in place and will always be open to new ideas. Like many I haven't wanted to drink for a long time I just wasn't ready to break free of the habit and the 'comfort' of that habit. I now see how destructive it really is and has been. I'm not going back there but i'm not expecting an easy ride either. Its going to be tough watching him get progressively worse. I hope that i will set an example and he will follow in my footsteps but if not well, all I can be accountable for is myself and my child.
