AH blowing .01 on BAC

So AH moved from his 2 week stint at his parents' into his apartment two days ago. He's been using SoberLink 3 x per day, no court order, just agreed to it. The last 3 weekends, he's drank on the way to "AA", or back from it (or both).

He bought tickets to attend a movie at 5 pm with DS. However, he called just now and said he wanted to "get ahead of this one" and admit he blew a positive of .01 on SoberLink. He was shopping at the store, wanted a beer, decided to have just one beer. He said he understood if I did not want DS to attend the movie. He also suggested telling DS that he "could not take him after all".

I told him nevermind about the movie. I just don't understand this disease. I've been wondering if/when he would drink at his new place. I have a feeling he was testing SoberLink to see how much he could get away with.

I haven't talked to DS yet. I'm debating what to tell him. Any advice or experience appreciated.
