What every man should know to protect his health.

Am searching for ways to prove that my ex is unfit as the custodial parent of our children due to alcoholism. He frequently passes out and leaves my 2 children, ages 7 and 9 to completely fend for themselves. I need some guidance quick!

Answer

Go to "Children's Aid" and have them stop in at the time you know that your husband passes out and leaves your children to fend for themselves. Once they see it with their own eyes they will take the children, but probably at a later date give you sole custody. Although this is traumatic for the children it's a must! Hopefully you are capable of raising the children and will have to prove this fact as far as finances, home, education, etc. The children always come first and you sound like a great mom, so go for it!
