Subject: Martha, I don't have much more to add b/c my thoughts are very similar to the others that have posted,
In reply to: marshun(Martha) 's message, "Well, DH and I had the rest of our talk(for now) last night....more" on 09:05:27 04/22/03 Tue

but one thing I think would be helpful for you is ALON. You need to talk w/others in your situation. You need to see that you are currently enabling you DH to continue with his addiction. ALON should help you realize it and help you break your cycle of enabling.

Have you discussed with your DH about how he'd feel if the kids started to partake in his "smoke"? I hope you realize that statistically your children are at a much higher risk of using then children who's parent do not use. And in all honesty can you say that your DH himself won't someday share with them, after all "its no big deal"?

You can not help your DH, only he can, but you can help yourself and your children. ALON would be a very good resource for you and the kids to start getting perspective and options.

Hugs,

Jackie
