Counselling had with husband leaving bad habit (6)
I believe the answer is:
advice
'counselling' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'had with husband leaving bad habit' is the wordplay.
'had' becomes 'd' (I've seen this in other clues).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'husband leaving' becomes 'a' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'bad habit' becomes 'vice' (I've seen this before).
'd' put after 'a' is 'ad'.
'ad'+'vice'='ADVICE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for advice that I've seen before include "Recommendation for a course of action" , "Suggestion for appropriate course of action" , "Warning - guidance" , "Supposed words of wisdom" , "Opinion offered as to future action" .)
