It is sad on several levels that your child found a drug stash belonging to his father. That is not my fault however. I have been clean for a long time Melissa ... I am currently building a Christian based recovery program for addicts. I have been a successful business owner, a responsible financial planner who paid my bills, owns a home, paid my child support and paid my children's way through post-graduate degree programs. Today one is an educator and the other a CPA. So for what it's worth I don't fall into your category of scumbag addict. You should get that straight now not that it matters.

I never offered excuses for those who are addicts. I agreed that people need to be held accountable for what they have done. And I most sincerely hate to see children fall victim to any abuse and yes, addiction can be an abusive relationship for both spouses and children. Yes I did suggest WHINE with the chesse. That was because you are not accomplishing anything or offering anything constructive, all you are doing is complaining and calling ALL addicts scumbags. That is not the case and will never be the case. That attitude is totally counter-productive. Your entire post was based around "ME". That is not any better than "addict thinking". Try getting tough with your spouse and kicking him to the curb if that will make your family existence better. That is your choice and it's your life to live as you see fit. But you are dead wrong to call every single addict some kind of miserable excuse for a human being. You don't know everyone's story or individual set of circumstances. You don't know me and you don't know everyone else. You know yourself and possibly your spouse, but that is where it stops.

I post everywhere on this forum and will continue to do so. You still should check out the suggestions for posting constructive and helpful comments on this forum and save your judgements of me and others for someplace else. I would suggest you learn about who you are condemning prior to making yourself appear foolish. You have posted twice on this forum and all you have done is complain. Post something productive and something that offers a message of hope for someone. If you have no hope to offer than you need to focus on your own growth and betterment. I wish your family the best of luck. God bless.
