A.   25 November 2006: Well, dont take any more. The first thing is, that it would be impossible for him to just take your babies away. This is a threat that cowardly men use to play mind games and control women in such a way that they will lie down and take the abuse. He ... (read in full...)

A.   18 November 2006: To be honest, I think there was probably something going on with him and this girl long before you broke up. He probably met her at one of those nights out you weren't allowed to go to. You deserve much better than this fool. ... (read in full...)
