[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems insane to me that courts wouldn't take a DUI into consideration for custody. That is dangerous behavior, shows that he is incapable of being responsible for himself, let alone children. [/quote]

They also don't take DV into consideration...so is it really that shocking?[/quote]

[b]For both drinking and DV they will if it's bad enough and there's evidence.[/b]

That's where court mandated use of something like BACTrac (and Intoxaloc) comes into play. If the issue spirals then OP has evidence and can go back to court to protect her family as needed.

It's miserable to have to think like this, but important.[/quote]

Our neighbors got divorced and some of us were subpoenaed to testify regarding the husband's drinking and physical abuse of the children, which we had witnessed. He still got custody. The system is so, so broken. He is an ER doctor and it's like the court just couldn't believe what we were saying about him. None of us wanted to be involved, none of us had it out for him, but we all told the truth. [/quote]
