I think education welfare people need to be involved if your son isn't going to school. Have the school contacted you about his attendance?

You need to put your child first - he's being failed by both of you if he isn't going to school.

You know the answer - it isnt okay for your partner to drink every day, its harmful for your child to not attend school, its harmful for him to be around a hungover parent (?and a drunken parent?). And it's all crap for you as a partner.

As others have said, school will likely raise this if they havent already.
