[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone seems very quick to assume the worst will happen if I stay with him and nothing bad will happen to my children if I leave.  Why is that?  I think both scenarios are dangerous and awful.  In one, I just have more control (but still not total).[/quote]

OP, NP here- this idea that you have control in your current situation is bullshit... but you are in a co-dependent relationship (which means that managing your husbands alcoholism has made you have your own issues that need to be dealt with, hence why so many want you to go to Al-anon and get some real control over your life instead of the co-dependent lack of control... The longer you live in fear of not being able to control what happens after you divorce the more blinded you are to the complete and total lack of control you have now, you are kidding yourself if you think you can stop him from putting your kids at risk...

I recommend the book- Codependecy No More by Melody Beattie.

Good luck OP[/quote]
