writes:Should i leave my alcoholic partner? He's ok through the week but at weekends he starts drinking as soon as he gets up and so is back in bed by lunch time. He gets up at tea time and starts drinking again then he's in bed again before our one year old daughter. He is then up most of the night because he's been asleep nearly all day, it's not fair on me or our daughter.

 Don't just dump the guy because he drinks on the weekends, thats a bit harsh don't you think?At least ask him to stop before you toss him aside, tell him its you or the booze.

 hi, alcohol is the destroyer of lives and people drink it to blank out much deaper seated issues ,unfortunatly your partner is disrupting you and your childs life with his addiction and if he doesnt seek help he will continue to drink him self in to an early grave,my dad was an alcaholic and my self and my sister had to grow up in this situation ,my dad was abusive and my mum would try and keep every one together as a family ,but we had no money, my mum and dad constantly rowed and it was horrible for us as children. You need to act now and decide what to do, either stay and try and get him help to stop, or failing that get out of this relationship as soon as possible

Yes, please spare your daughter this bad experience. In the far future, she may blame you for her pain. Your partner needs to figure out why he's drinking so hard all weekend long, and missing out on what should be the happiest time of his life.
