No I do not.[/quote]

I’d be equally concerned if my DH drank every evening, or snuck out to the garage to drink while the kids were awake.

In fact, I had a DH who drank 3 beers every night (to help him sleep) and snuck drinks during the day (too help him relax and deal with boredom)when he was in charge of the kids.

In fact, he had a drinking problem and a mental illness that was better treated by a psychiatrist, meds and a therapist than daily alcohol.
  
Like the daily pot smokers, he argued that his drinking wasn’t a problem because he had a high enough tolerance that he wasn’t drunk.  He said I was the one with the problem.  He wasn’t wrong about me having a problem, but was wrong about what my problem was.  My problem wasn’t that I was uptight or controlling; my problem was that I was married and had 2 kids with a guy with a drinking problem and untreated mental illness.

There were multiple ways for me to fix that problem, and the one I chose was divorce and full physical custody. [/quote]
