Do you think a parent on drugs should have unsupervised visitation?

I am married (soon to be divorced) and my husband chose another women and crack over his family. We have two wonderful boys and they know what's been going on. He told this tramp that I was making him unhappy and I caused him to relaps (start using again). I don't understasnd how I put the drugs in his pipe4, up to his lips, lit it for him and forced him to smoke. It is also my understanding that you have to be happy within yourself before you can be happy with anyone else. I think what it all boils down to is that she is thinking maybe he'll change; however I have been putting up with is crap for 141/2 years total. We were married before and got a divorce then got remarried 71/2 years later. What was I thinking about other than I LOVE HIM?? No point in staying in a marriage by your self!!! What would you do if you were in my position? Our boys are 14 and 11.

I agree with Cindy, your husband needs help. Your kids do not need to be around a drug user. Especially if he is angry towards you. Do not worry about the new girlfriend she will see his "true colors" sooner or later. I would document everything he is doing and saying. There is a journal section on this website that is confidential. Keep records everyday of his drug use and verbal abuse so you can show this to the court. He obviously needs counselilng. Do you still love him?

sounds like a lot is going on here....and i need more information. but if he is on drugs, he needs help and you need to protect yourself and your kids. if he has left, maybe you need to move on now too. i would file divorce papers and make sure you make it very clear to the courts/lawyers that he is a drug abuser and can not have visitation unsupervised...and maybe you should try for sole custody?
