I’m sorry you are having to go through this. Talking with your in-law to get support is smart. From experience it helps to have someone close to talk with about what is happening. Will that cause more problems between you and your husband? If it does have you found a safe, affordable place to live? Watching someone’s every move can be tiring. My ex was an alcoholic too. I started going to dance classes to get away from him and clear my mind, leaving my kids with my mother-in-law. I’m not telling you to leave (not let him back home) but when I finally did decide to leave, after he got jail time for his 5 or 6 DWI, I felt so much better. The kids missed him but the chaos that had them on edge was gone. I sincerely hope you and your children have a wonderful holiday!
