All you can really do is focus on you and your child. Of course you will be honest about where he is when you have to be and that is where a therapist should guide you is on what to disclose and how. The number one focus is you and your sobriety and giving a great life to yourself and your child. I know for me, once I had children I felt that meant the decision was no longer there to use....I simply could not. It isn't the same for everyone but the fact that you are so dedicated is great and a year clean is fabulous. Congrats

Right, that is how I felt also. I have never been so terrified when I realized that I could note keep using whilst trying to be a good mom. It was one or the other. I had to choose my daughter. Thank you for the congratulations. I hope that I will have the common sense and the insight on how to deal with these situations as time and therapy goes on...I will be honest with her always. I appreciate the great advice and the awesome congrats from everyone on here. I truly love this forum so much.
