Put it this way....this stuff starts somewhere. Back when he had his first steps down this road...he didn't need someone there to counsel him not to be self destructive. He made stupid/selfish choices early on and it sounds like he was a dad when this really started. Its one thing when you are hurting yourself. Its another when you have dependents.
I'll be the one. You are ignorant.

The addition of children into the equation doesn't magically make a cognitive behaviour dysfunction go away. You acknowledge that he needs help but you want to assign blame and demonize him. People like you are one of the reasons why those with mental health and addiction issues don't get help. The public judgement of them by those who like to talk of stupid/selfish choices is why people keep this kind of stuff hidden. Your desire to assign blame is an obstacle to your understanding.
