[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm starting to wonder if this isn't just some horrible troll post, but I will respond seriously just in case.

OP, you are thinking about this the wrong way. By refusing to take drastic actions, you are enabling your husband's drinking, which is endangering your family AND OTHER PEOPLE. Every time your husband gets in the car, he is taking not only his life, and your precious children's lives, but also everyone else's precious children's lives into his drunken hands.

While you think you are protecting your children by being there to pick them up when they are cold and shivering on the stairs at 3 am, you are actually doing possibly irreparable damage to them by keeping them in the house with a dangerous alcoholic.

Yes, the best solution is for your husband to stop drinking forever. And the best way for you to help him to do that is to stop enabling him. Perhaps once his wife divorces him and he has to go through a nasty court battle and he loses custody of his children and all of your friends get to hear all the details, he will realize that he needs help.

If money is an object, please reach out to a women's shelter who can help you plan an exit strategy. The solution you have hit on, of saying "Oh Fuck" and hoping for the best is a recipe for disaster. I hope you will find the strength to get help.[/quote]
