I think the short answer to that is yes. MLC is such a heartbreaking issue. It seems to bring out selfishness and carelessness in people that were once quite the opposite. They view this as "their time now". They are scrambling to fill that void in themselves. Unfortunately they mistake pleasure for happiness so although they are temporarily feeling better, it doesn't last. The worst part is that the kids and family are the casualties of these poor choices.
I am so sorry you are going through this. You are not alone. Keep making good choices you are proud of. You will be surprised how much you and your kids bond through this experience.
