can people with M.S. take care of toddlers????
My Ex-husband Has been diagnosed with M.S. and now we are going to file for a divorce and my worry is that we have a 2 1/2 year old and I am afraid that he will be getting unsupervised custody of her and on top of his M.S. he smokes weed and is an alcoholic. So I wonder what are some of the problems that people with M.S. have when it comes to taking care of toddlers????
Yes, there are many parents with MS who have young children. I would be much more concerned about your ex taking care of the baby when he is under the influence of weed and alcohol then the MS. Best of luck.

Yes I am in complete agreement with Karen. Find ways to keep your toddlers busy. Get the insterested in good things early. When my girls were toddlers and they wanted to be in everyting, I kept them busy with coloring books, and books, paper dolls, paint by numbers, clay and many cheap arts and crafts. They were so busy and interested in that stuff they did not have time for anything else. It got to the point they could not wait to see what I had for them to do next, and it paid off for them in school. sherry/smomdukes

i raised 2 children where there's a will there's a way. i used cloth diapers and my first born had many put on w/o pins--i would worry more about his other habits--maybe he would agree not to take her if he's having an exaserbation.i can see where this would be a dilemma for you. you cannot deny her her father,but u want to keep her safe.my son's father was a heavy drinker and i worried every time he picked them up. you just have to take all the precautions u can than trust everything will be ok djax59
