No it think it’s physically safe at the moment- it’s more having to think long term- of he’s not dealing with the addiction then he will descend into severe addiction again (he says he’s sober for now but has failed 2 drug tests in the past 2 months)
I don’t want my daughter around active addiction like that – as he inevitably becomes more unreliable etc…
Sorry you’re going through this Kris- it sounds horrendous. But this is what I’m talking about- if she is not dealing with her alcoholism then it’s not benefiting your child to have a relationship with her- and the hurt of no shows and seeing her drunk – surely we have to protect them from that?
I don’t want to go to court is my other anxiety- sounds combative and expensive. Although the emotional weight of making these decisions is hard…
what I’ve done is give him a 3 months contract and said he needs to do a hair strand test at the end of that (so I’ll know his use over the next 3 months) and then have a discussion
