My ex is in a transitional stage right now, no permanent home or job. He is staying with his parents 1000 miles away. I moved with my children about 7 months ago with my new husband. He has been in the military up until this point so hasn’t been involved in much of their lives.
We are trying to figure out arrangements for him to see the kids in the future. This is especially hard for me since I have been raising them solely for 6 years. They have never stayed with him alone overnight because he is always at his parents if he sees them. He has a history of violence, alcohol abuse, and gambling addiction. All of this can be proven. Should I continue negotiations? If so, what does everyone suggest? or, should I go back to court and try to get supervised visitation and not authorize him to leave the state with the children until he is rehabilitated?

and Have you done any research to support your opinion? Here is my opinion- I would like to hear yours…
Personally, I am all for the legalization of it…
And no, I am not a pothead, I don’t even smoke, I don’t like it…
that being said- My reasons are these,
If Cigarettes and alcohol are legal, what difference is pot? Studies have actually proven that you are less violent and a better driver when high then drunk-
Also, if it is a regulated substance, this actually makes it harder for kids to get it- they would have to show ID (Dealers actually don’t want it legalized because of this, if any store would sell it like they sell smokes and alcohol, the dealers would “go out of business”… It’s harder for kids to get smokes and Alcohol because of this-

I know it’s not that great but I tried.
Eddie Guerrero was born on October 3,1967 in El Paso, Texas. He was born into the Guerrero family which was Mexico’s first family of professional wrestlers. His father was Gory Guerrero, a Mexican wrestling legend. Because of that, at an early age many people thought that he was going to grow up a wrestler. Before Eddie turned twenty, he was wrestling in Mexico under small promotions. His true talent was clearly shown and better opportunities were soon to follow. Soon, a new promotion, World Championship Wrestling, (WCW) was looking for impressive talent and Eddie seemed to be exactly what they were looking for. Eddie never got to shine and let the world know what he was about because of backstage feuds and racism. Other things in personal life started to go downhill. He was really depressed about his life so he tried to wipe away all the trouble in his life with alcohol, drugs, and painkillers. It clearly didn’t work and he was on a downward spiral. Some of his friends like Chris Benoit were tired of the way they were being treated so they thought the best thing to do was to leave WCW. Eddie signed with World Wrestling Federation (WWF) which was the big leagues. In his debut match against “The New Age Outlaws” he tried to perform his signature move but injured his elbow in the process. When he came back he teamed with Chyna and because the “Latino Heat” character that really made him famous. He continued to “Wow” wrestling fans al over the world but on a personal level Guerrero was slowly hurting himself. Every night was another party, more alcohol, and more pills. His family really wanted to help him but he didn’t want to face the fact that he wasn’t okay. He even spent four months in rehab. That still couldn’t change his addictions. He even lost his job with the WWE because of a DUI arrest. Finally, after all the troubles in his family he thought there was only one way to solve this, and that was to end his life. He took more pills, drank more alcohol and got into his car. His plan was to make his wife feel bad for him by getting in a car accident. If he survived the night, that was fine. If he didn’t, oh well. That night he got into a really serious car accident. His wife thought it was a miracle that he didn’t get killed. While he was lying in his hospital bed his kids were brought into the room. When he saw his kids cry he knew he had to do something. He started going back to church with his wife, Vickie. Part of that was just a way to try and save his marriage. He realized that what he really needed in his life was God. He says that he used the bible to “Help him find peace and kick his addictions.” Because he got clean WWE offered him a second chance. He graciously took it and new that this is what he was meant to do. He teamed up with his nephew Chavo Guerrero and formed the tag team “Los Guerreros”. They became WWE tag team champions. In single wrestling he also won the WWE Championship. He said that that is one of the greatest moments of his career. Sadly Eddie Guerrero died in November 2005, due to heart complications caused by his former addictions and former steroid use.
Also what do you think would be a good title for a Chris Benoit book. My dad said Killing Children,Stealing Steriods:The Chris Benoit Story. It’s kinda funny but at the same time really messed up.
I’ve been trying to look for websites that show both good and bad on the drug. What you get (because crazy people are the ones that would care enough to actually have websites!) is a bunch of extremes. You get either the people who want to keep it criminalized (illegal=EVIL mentality) and think it is terrible. Then you get the full stoners who go to full lengths to justify marijuana (smoking is bad too, obesitiy is worse, it is the wonder cure!)
Here are some facts;

I have limited exposure to alcoholism from various stages and people in my life…and currently involved with a recovering alcoholic… I try to support others going through the same thing… and had a friend say this to me recently —
“One thing I’m coming to grips with right now is that, regardless of what he says, alcohol is his #1 love, not me. He will beg, borrow, steal and lie to get it – and I couldn’t say for sure if he’d go to those lengths for me! Should we be sympathetic to the fact that this addiction and disease
is making them lie and hurt us? Somedays I feel there is a fine line between being supportive and being a total pushover.”

Why don’t drug organizations talk about the “potential dangers” of magic mushrooms. Why are they illegal? Why is alcohol mentioned as a danger in classes such as D.A.R.E. but it’s still legal compared to the psychedelic mushroom? Why is weed illegal? It seems to me that drunk drivers, talkers, walkers and drunk people in general are impaired 100X more than the marijuana smoker. All in all the alcohol consumer is effected much greater in the long run and time being through the body and the mind, including risk of physical addiction and over does, when the marijuana user is barely effect along with the mushroom head. If anything I think alcohol should be illegal, it causes much more problems than marijuana. The only problems caused by marijuana are the drug war issues, if it was legal considering the facts that it’s safer than alcohol there would be no issues. And please don’t say they have no medical use or what ever dumb excuse in that area because neither does alcohol. And please don’t say marijuana and pyschedelic mushrooms can be mentally addictive because anything can. Now please tell me what you think about this and if you agree or disagree with me, thank you.
I wondered why life is so confusing when knowing that females always had bad intentions, I still always wondered why I still attracted to them. Furthermore, they can and will make me unhappy, or could possibly screw up my life. For example, knowing that drugs and alcohol are terrible for the human body, yet a drug addict continue to use them because of the addiction. How ironic; therefore, I wonder why I am in the same predicament with females?
Morphine is 10 times more addictive than alcohol! Doctors would give it out to people they felt drank too much. Doctors thought eating it would create cravings so they made the syringe so people could inject it directly into their bloodstream.
So, Then Heroine was invented to get rid of morphine addiction! lmao

Once married, alot of people settle into who they are and their spouse should just “deal with it”. Life is about change, about growing and about compromise with your spouse. I feel alot of people end in divorce because they are not seeing their own failures in taking care of themselves and working on themself. Things such as, not working on your own addictions (alcohol, porn, internet, etc.), not working to communicate effectively, not working to make sound financial decisions. These all take willpower from oneself, not willpower for the sake of your spouse… you are the only person in control of your own decisions and when those decisions are no longer being made from a source with the willpower to grow and do better then they are choices made to contribute to the destruction of your marriage.
Just because you are married, does not mean your whole life is devoted only to love unconditionally… you can do that and still take care of yourself, in fact I think thats the most healthy way to be in a relationship. Its too difficult to be a relationship with someone that does not know how to confront problems, or communicate or anything. No matter who you are with… if you are not with someone that knows they have to figure out how to do that on their own without your constant pressure to make them learn then I believe marriages begin to fall apart.

(I know this is a lot to read, and I would be most grateful if you did read it and gave me feedback. Just a note: I may be almost 17, but my writing skills are not so useless that I wouldn’t incorporate the flaws I have listed into my story. Reading a story with undeveloped characters would be horrible, but writing one…? How very boring. Thanks in advance.)
