He swore to me that I was crazy and there were no marijuana drugs in his house.
When my ex and I got a divorce, I wanted to make sure that he was going to follow the rules that I set forth in the custody arrangement. One of the rules was not using recreational marijuana in front of the kids. I had a huge problem with my husband using marijuana with the kids in the house and that was one of the reasons why I decided to file for divorce. I did not want him to continue the terrible behavior once the kids were out of my house and he was alone with them. There are studies that show secondhand smoke from marijuana can cause just as many problems as second hand smoke from cigarettes. Our custody arrangements stated that my husband would refrain from doing any drugs in front of the children or while they were in his care. The first weekend the kids were with him, they came home and their clothes and their bag smelled like weed. I called my husband and I demanded an answer. He swore to me that I was crazy and there were no marijuana drugs in his house. The next time the kids came home and they smelled like marijuana, I called the social worker. She went to surprise my ex-husband for a visit and she found marijuana in the house. She surprised him on a day when the kids were with him and the social worker had proof that my ex-husband was not following the custody arrangement. Now he has to have supervised visits with the children until he can complete a drug and alcohol rehabilitation class.
