Hi there,
The good news is that kids can be amazingly forgiving. It may take them a while, but they will. The important issue, I think, is to remember they deserve the time to get to know the "new you".
Think of it this way: If you had a friend that you went out with every Thursday and he drank himself stupid every week, you would be used to his behaviour. If that same friend quit drinking, your Thursday nights would be totally different. It would take time to get to know your friend as a sober person.
Hang in there. It will get better for you. Don't lose hope. You have done the right thing.
