[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She should stick it out if she can. Her child will suffer. She can give hard consequences etc. but the best future for the kid is having a clean dad and a dad in the picture. Not dead, addicted or absent. She can't be a doormat, but should try again[/quote] This is wrong. The child will suffer being in a home with addiction. And the odds are against him recovering from his addiction any time soon. I think the latest numbers are six attempts of serious rehab before any lasting or meaningful recovery - and then you still never know. Relapses are common even at that point. This poor mom is not responsible for his recovery. She didn't cause it. She can't control it. And she can't cure it. And her child should not stay in a home with an addict. [/quote]
