[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This question is crazy to me but I am going to answer because I grew up with an alcoholic father and babysat throughout high school. His alcoholism effected me in many ways, but not in my ability to care for children. I personally loved the opportunity to get out of the house and make money. 1) you don't know/have proof if her mother is an alcholic. 2) why does it even matter (judging her before she has even babysat your kid is ridiculous) 3) give her a chance- it may end up being a wonderful relationship for your kids, for her, and maybe even you.[/quote] She is the mother her #1 responsibility is the wealthfare of her kids, even if it's unfair or comes across judgy that is why it matters. OP I think the alcoholic has the issues, the teenager is a victim of it but not the addict here so her abilities should be fine. If anything she is probably more responsible than most of her mother wasn't taking care of her. I think she should be fine[/quote]
