I don't understand lowering your expectations. I lowered my expectations of him to ground level when he was drinking. It didn't help me at all.
Please explain this to me. I'm not being sarcastic, I really want to know.

Why not remove yourself and the 'kids' out of the situation entirely? Your disdain,for him, is well documented on here and I just can't wrap my mind around why you'd stay..is it purely financial?..you said "end of my rope"..what's that mean to you?...could you get a place next week?..If not that should be your goal..plans put into action allow change.
Again..not trying to be an ass.
