Question by : What happens to children when the only guardian is an alcoholic?
Okay so lets use code names so it doesn’t get awkward:
I know someone, let’s call her Samantha, that her mom died when she was 7. The mom took her pills too much and drank them with alcohol. Samantha and her sister, let’s call her Barbara, are pretty sure that their dad is an alcoholic. She and Barbara don’t know what happens to kids when their only guardian is an alcoholic. So if you could please answer in to what happens I will be thankful.
P.s. these are not real people I just didn’t want to show the real people

Your friend should contact Alcoholics Anonymous, or Al-Anon, Al-Alon is better for it is for survivors of alcoholics.

this is starting to get into family law
i know that here in the state that i live if the dad is not capable of looking after the children due to his drinking problems and the children are suffereing then im pretty sure the department of human services can get involved
they can go as far as taking the case to the children’s court if they think the father shouldnt have custody of the children
i only know the basic information regarding the laws where i live
