Telling Children about your addicition
You wonderful wonderful people... I have yet another question. My boyfriend, well sperm donor is now is recovery. How does he explain this to his so who's mother is actively using coke and drinking? I said keep the focus on him, apologize to him, recognize how scary it was for him. How the hell DYFS didnt get involved I am baffled being she has tested positive 2 times in the past but that is out of my control. The only reason I am so passionate about this is because he is the brother of my unborn son and I want him to get all the help he possiblely can. Any other ideas? Love to you all!!!

Hi Michelle. I don't have ideas because I don't have children, just giving your thread support. I do not envy you your task. I know someone will be around to offer their ESH on this matter. The weekends are fairly quiet so don't take it personal if it takes awhile to get a response.

How old is the child? If the mother does not have custody do you really need to explain anything as of yet? It all depends on the age. A child does not want to hear horrible things about their parent no matter what so it's a very delicate subject. Has the child asked?
