Mikados are lush! agony auntThe trouble with people on drugs is they can lie through their back teeth for England! My brother was pretty much hooked on cocaine, and was the one that told me that. If they want you to believe something, they will go out of their way to lie. But he is a rubbish role model for your child. So you have to give him a choice and a time scale. If he doesn't stick to it, then leave him. Sounds easy, but its really got to be that harsh. He will spend all your family money on drugs and be little or no use to you, only be a liability.

Nows the time to put the baby first.

This is going to be tough love, tougher than you imagined.

You have to give him no choice. Either you leave him and take the baby or he goes and gets on a program.

Tell him he has two weeks to think about it - it isn't a discussion. But you have to follow it through.

if you don't think its worth your time and effort (e.g. if you don't think he loves you) then go find someone who is so into you that they don't need artificial stimulus.

what is he into?

If he says he'll change and then he doesn't and then you forgive him... then why the hell would he think "Oh gosh, I REALLY need to change!"???

You keep taking him back so he knows it's not that big a deal.

If you don't want to live with a drug user then kick him out of your house.

Good Luck!! xx
