What I have seen, I already said, I’ve seen on COPS. A typical scenario would be cops called to a domestic disturbance, they generally show up an arrest the man for the violence if not other stuff, often drugs/alcohol involved, but if the victim (typically the wife/femal) is noticeably messed up they will actually arrest her for child endangerment due to her inebriation.

The kids then go to a presumably sober relative’s or foster care situation.

Drug abusers can’t foster. I wonder why that is? Children are just as safe in the home of an abuser/addict than a non-abuser, right?

Of course not. We both know it. Why do you continue to pretend? Are you handing your kids over to a drug-using mom or day care and pretending they’ll be just fine? Does your fantasy extend that far?

If you drop your kids at the sitter and she casually snorts some coke as you’re heading out, you’re just fine with that? Do you leave them with an aunt who smokes a bowl every night after dinner? Really?

So that's your "evidence": "reality" TV?

You're changing the subject from your claim that a single incident of drunkenness qualifies as child endangerment.
