Hi Lox
I can not say how much I agree wit CH & mg. My father was a junkie, my step father an alcholic, so please believe me, your daughter should never be alone & unsupervised with her mother, never be driving with her & she needs any & all remaing custody rights removed. (I would not normally have said something like this but I'm probably closer to this than most any one you'll ever meet & at this point I don't really care who knows what about me anymore). She needs your complete protection from her, it may be sad but the duck isn't going to meow. It'll be best for the long run too. I never met my father, once he was out until I was 12 about 13 by then he had cleaned up his act & my mother was sure of it & he stayed that way for the rest of his life. We became very close in my late teens when he was trying to help me with my drug problems & we stayed that way up untill his death. So my sister & I had a good 35+ yrs with him as a good friend. Hopefully your daughter will be as lucky but most are not & it'll take along time if that does happen so no matter what it's all about her saftey. Kids die in the hands of junkies.
Good luck, but you already know you'll be needing a lot more than that.
