Wendy:

I'm not an expert. I'm a new member, but the one concept about al-a-
non that is really sticking with me is that you can't control how
others will ask. It's going to be hard for your ex-husband to earn
your trust in regards to your son, but trust that the courts know
what they are doing. He's going to have to prove his sobriety. Not
only that, but if you have an attorney, he work with you to express
your fears to the courts and request supervised visitation.

Hang in there!
