*TRIGGER WARNING: EMOTIONAL ABUSE*

In this episode, we read a submission from a stepmom in a tough situation. With a partner who struggles with addiction and often lashes out at the kids and her, and who tries to put the stepmom in a situation where she is a supervising party to court-mandated supervised visits. We try to pick through the information and give our best advice on how to handle this situation. It's worth noting that while we don't have ALL the information, we felt as though we had enough information to give sound advice.

If you are struggling or finding yourself in a potentially abusive relationship, please use the resources below to seek help.
