getting back at EXIf the court does not know he has a problem you NEED show the court he has a problem. First if you don't have a lawyer GET ONE ASAP Second do you have visits with the children if so you can ask the kids how it makes them feel to see Daddy drunk? Write everything down you must keep a jounral how many times you & your kids see him drink?If you see him at the store maybe even report it to the police especailly for the safety of your kids Then the police report can be shown to your lawyer has prove.Take pictures of your ex drunk get a tape player taped him on the phone if you speak yo him when you know his drunk.The Most important YOU NEED A LAWYER THEY CAN HELP YOU IN THE RIGHT & SAFE WAY FOR YOUR KIDS!

DO NOT take covert pictures or tape conversations of unless you have obtained legal advice before taking the action. Such actions can be illegal under the laws of the state in which they are done (taping phone conversations is also controlled by federal law).

Keeping record of incidents can be helpful if they can be attested to by a third party. "Third party" does not mean the children, judges do not look favorably on any parent who involves their child unless there is absolutely no other choice.

DO NOT call the police unless you have valid proof that the children or other persons are in immediate danger.

Retain an attorney give him or her all pertinent information and let that person handle the situation. DO NOT attempt to handle the situation on your own or with the help of individuals who are not trained in such matters.

If obtaining legal representation is not an option contact the state's division of child protective services or the state's department of family and children (DFS) services for assistance

Is it possible for a recovering alcoholic to have kids?

Yes, and an "active" alcoholic can also have children.


How can we adapt the social environment for children with impulsive behavior attention deficits or behavior problems?

We can force all children to watch TV for hours on end. This will lower the attention spans of the children making those who have impulsive behavior attention deficits or behavior problems look tame. We would also have to make sure none of the children watch CSPAN or the Discovery Channel. Spongebob and Pokemon would sufficiently lower everyone's attention span.


Does the family need treatment when an alcoholic goes into rehab?

Yes. Alcoholism is a family disease because everyone in the family is affected in some way by the actions of the alcoholic. Children may feel responsible because in their immature minds, they believe if they were better children, the alcoholic would not drink. Spouses may inadvertently promote the drinking without understanding how they could be doing it. Also, when an alcoholic goes into treatment the only thing that changes is the alcoholic. If the family dynamics don't change, the alcoholic is returning to the same toxic environment. While the family is not the cause of the drinking, a slippery slope exists giving the alcoholic an "excuse" to go back to drinking. It is important for the family to remember that they did not cause the alcoholic to drink, they cannot control the drinking and they cannot stop the alcoholic from drinking.


Why should we blame our media and friends for children's misbehavior?

We shouldn't. Sure media and friends can influence a child's behavior, but ultimately, if a parent sets a good, healthy environment for their kids, good behavior will follow.

Boarding schools do have a proven effect on behavior. However, it tends to have similar effects as any other total removal from an environment which produced disruptive behavior.


How does the environment effect the behavior of the children?

What do you think? It's really cold out today. I think I will stay inside where it is warm. This is a slant on health care reform! Obviously!

Can schools inadvertently enhance adhd behavior?

There is some evidence that schools can inadvertently enhance ADHD-like behavior. For example, one study found that children who were in environments with more stimulating and complex visual displays (e.g., classrooms with lots of posters and materials on the walls) were more likely to be diagnosed with ADHD. It is possible that these children are simply more sensitive to their environment and that the stimulating environment may be over-stimulating for them. In addition, schools often require children to sit still for long periods of time and to pay attention to lectures, which can be difficult for children with ADHD. Thus, it is possible that the school environment can exacerbate ADHD-like symptoms in some children.
