[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Something to think about - do you ever have to be out of town or gone overnight and he is responsible for the kids? Are you comfortable leaving him in charge at night  -if an emergency arises can he handle it? [/quote]

It’s more than this.
If OP divorces him, he and his “high functioning alcoholic” self will have 50% custody and will be in charge of the kids without OP there to supervise during that time. He can even get in a car with them and drive. And OP can’t do anything about it because there is no proof he is an alcoholic. And he will fight her for 50% custody.
And then OP’s new problem will be how does she make sure her kids are safe when she is no longer there in the home to protect them.
[b]It’s a lose-lose situation and OP just had to select the least sucky option of the two available.[/b]

Nah. OP needs to value her own life and get away from this noise. Women will always be second class citizens as long as they make decisions based on things that might happen if they aren’t around to control things.

If the man can keep a job without getting fired, he can likely function with two kids. Really. That’s why he will get 50/50 custody - nothing has happened that harmed the children.
