Does a parent pose a risk to a child if they have a "drinking" episode every six weeks and they are non resident parent?

I suppose from the view of the officals (Child Family Services or whomever works these kinds of committees) you probably do pose a risk. No matter what the story may be, and weather it happens with the kids around or not, they will never see it as anything beyond "potential to be a problem" those "people" are just that way.

Not necessarily. I wouldn't let them have the child if their episode occurred in their contact time. They do need to tackle their drinking, though.
