No, I would not do it during this time. Put your children first. I think it can wait until you get back home. What do you think about the plan I suggested in my first post to you?

I felt that she needed to have her Pastor present with you. Is this counselor a part of the ministry in the Church she attends? If the C will work with you in helping her, then that might be as good as the Pastor. Either way, tough love has to be the road to take with an addiction. You must continue to see her as one who wants to find her "fix".


It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
