How many times have you said you would stubbornly stand by her as she proved over and over that she doesn't want you there? She wants to drink. Doesn't matter what she SAYS. Her actions say everything.

Why are you doing all of this for her? Stop doing this for her now -- she doesn't want it. Focus on therapy for you and the kids. What about Alanon?

Don't snoop on her phone. Just accept this: you can not trust an active addict, you can not control an active addict, you can not cure an active addict... and you sure as heck did not cause their addiction.

You can't change her.
You can change YOU.
You can and should and must protect the kids.

The kids should NOT be with her unless a court orders it and they should not be with her unsupervised!

What have you done for yourself and your kids lately?
