Bob brought out the best in Jesse, his involvement in her life gave her confidence and the motivation to the through the worst ordeal of her life more easily. She decided to move out of her apartment, and in with her best friend Carol, and family. She wanted to save her money , to get a better apartment for when the children came home. Carol, offered her, the time that she needed to get on her feet. She also relied on Carol's moral support, Carol knew she was fragile and she wanted to make sure Jesse could never be alone. She also got transferred to a town 20 miles away. She thought with a fresh start in working there would be easier, nobody knew what was going on, so there was never any hard stares, or quirky questions. The only people who knew were the managers, but she knew they would never treat her any different than they had before. With all the steps taken to assure her, Jesse was still weak, living by the bottle more and more. Jesse , hated dependents on anything, and was always the first to rebel against addicts of any kind, but the pain of her depression deepened, and Jesse, started doing the one thing she despised, she became co-dependent to alcoholism, the only time she didn't drink was her times in court, with her children and with the coalition, God she hated those damn people and she wanted to tell them where to stick their fucking case plan . She did enjoy going to the parent classes, since she had been through it all before, she , knew a lot and helped the counselor with the assignments. She enjoyed sharing with other parents her ides and what works ,what doesn't. " Parenting is a day to day learning experience, and some of the things you will encounter, hasn't been written yet" she would explain to the group. Anger management was tougher, it was ironic, but the anger management instructor, had an anger issue herself, hell who knows, maybe that was the point, Jesse, thought. She didn't like the instructor, and she didn't care for the girl's in the group, to Jesse, they all thought they were better than she. Jesse, kept cool and didn't
loose her temper, she would do nothing to sabotage her family
