to not expect to my dp to come home steaming drunk with my ds (4) from his nursery presentation day??????

[Jazzicatz]

Well am I??????

Wake him up at 5am tomorrow and get him to clean the loo with his toothbrush.

And then knee him in the balls.

Sometimes people need reminding, cod.

cod - Ithought there IS a specific charge of being drunk in charge of a child??

How gets drunk the point of passing out these days?

Is he 19?

It's also to some extent (moral) responsbility of the other adults to make sure he didn't drive home.

Obv. your dh has a lot to answer for but if you had a phone call from the nursery then the staff must have realised he was not fit to drive. And should have phoned you.

I am actually appalled that they let the child get into a car with a man who was sufficiently drunk that he passed out when he got home. This isn't some delicate ethical debating point, its a no-brainer. He could have fucking killed them both, or somebody else. Asshole.

No he is 36 and 18 stone - as I say he must have drunk a shed load.

I'd be livid. I'm not sure what I'd do if my dh ever drove while drunk - and if he did it with our children in the car...well, I'd be questioning whether I wanted to stay in a relationship with a man so completely irresponsible and selfish. And I'd be furious with a nursery who let him take a child while drunk - did they know he was driving?

Completely inexcusable behaviour.

just googled it - it is an offence.

Wake the cunt up!

I'd say he must have been drunk before he picked ds up & the staff may not know him well enough to know he was drunk.

Although jazz did say a teacher offered to drive them home & another called to make sure they got home safely.

A matter of negligence in the nursery's case.

Just immaturity & fuckin stipidity on your dhs behalf.

Where were you Jazz?

If he drove whilst drunk he is a w*nker regardless of anything else.

Hi sorry, just feeding the boys. Not sure what to do with dp, he was sober when he left at 2.00pm with ds, he was gone ages, and then rolled up at 6.00pm with ds and he could hardly stand up - having just spoken to nursery, I don't think they realised how drunk he was, but one of the staff offered to drive them home, but dp refused and drove them both back, the more I think about it the angrier I am!!!!!!!!!

just for info.

"I cannot believe he would drive home with our ds in the car".

If I knew anyone that was drunk and drove a car, I would report them to the police.

If they were drunk and drove a car with my children in it, I would report them to the police.

And they would be looking for somewhere else to live.

And possibly looking to locate their teeth.

I couldn't continue a relationship with someone who has so little regard for the safety of my child.

What are you going to do Jazzicat?

I really don't know - I was just thinking that!

or more specifically off that site...

"It is an offence to be drunk in charge of a child under 7 years old. "

don't wake him up, eh? What sense would you get out of him? Plan A sounds best.

Meanwhile you can think of a suitable punishment....

des he drink to excess often?
that's four hours so he had loads of time to knock quite a bit back
I think having alcohol there was fine
It's the driving home it that is shocking

does he often drink and drive?

Yes he does Compo! It is not something I condone.

over the limit drink and drive?

He's a f-ing tw*t then.

Yes compo

I'd call the police and get him banned... or kick him out.....
