[quote=Anonymous]I would trust your gut and not have her around your child without you. I would do that based on your experience with her - not based on unsubstantiated rumors. That said, I've had a situation where a parent was drunk at a gathering of children (the drunk parent was the host and had offer to drive some of the children home!). In that situation, parents had to discuss the obvious and offer rides to the children for their own safety. However, no one confronted the parent or even perpetuated the story. I've often wondered if we did the right thing by not sharing the story with other parents. After all, what if someone accepts a ride for their child next time and this parent is drunk again? Wouldn't we all feel awful? Hard to know how to handle these things the right way. For me, I simply made the decision that my DC cannot go in the car with this parent ever again.[/quote]
