[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. I'm really sorry you're going through this. I don't have a ton of advice on coping, but I do want to share one piece of information. I know a couple that divorced due to one of the parents' drinking, and in the custody agreement they negotiated that neither parent can drink any alcohol at all while the kids are in their custody. If that is violated, the custody agreement will be immediately revisited (they may even have a clause for what happens, not sure). I'm sharing this, because you sound worried about protecting your DD if you leave. This might be an option, since it wouldn't really require any proof of negligence up front. [/quote]

This seems like a good idea, but how could you trust or confirm that an alcoholic would abide by this rule? [/quote]
It's not airtight, but if you ever do find out about drinking you have immediate recourse instead of needing to build a case. When the kid is a little older, it will be much easier to enforce since they can speak up too.[/quote]
