My AA sponsor constantly tells me to do nothing. Not nothing where there is no action but nothing to fight her... . I will never when a fight against her. I tried for far too long. I am making my AA meetings 3 nights a week. My sponsor is more concerned about my actions, my step work, my service, then how many AA meetings I go to.

Sounds like a good man.

I am no longer fighting them, it's not about her or me or who's right and who's wrong... . it's about my son and what is right and wrong for him.

And another good man. We're all proud of you.

I will have an opportunity to do that on the stand.

When you are on the stand, it is all about the judge and how he/she sees you.  Nothing else matters.  And these guys have seen it all so play it straight.  He is going to want to see a self-aware man.  A man remorseful for his digressions and committed to do the hard work.

Her attorney is going to try and rattle you - ask embarrassing questions - trip you up.  How you perform in that triggering environment will be important. Listen carefully to your attorney.  You need steady nerves, honesty, and no excuses - just answer the question - don't take the bait.

Attorney: Arn, given x, y, z, and that fact that you are a scuzball, wouldn't you say you are a danger to this child?  

Arn:  No sir, I am not a danger to my child.  I love my child and I want a healthy environment for him all around.


Rehearse.  Be ready.
