“There are serious and significant issues related to the plaintiff’s abuse of alcohol and/or other substances.” “The plaintiff, a mother of three, ‘is running the streets every night.’” “The husband’s offensive and harmful statements regarding his wife are direct attempts on his part to estrange the minor children.” “The presence of the father in the marital residence adversely affects the health and well-being of the mother and minor children.” “The wife’s numerous affairs and exposure of her current boyfriend to the children is not in their best interest.”
