I am a mother of 3 and I teach 16 to 19 year olds. I have had many experiences throughout life with men and family problems.

I can relate to many of the problems identified and have always been able to come out of them with my head held high. I would like to help others do that to and see that there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.

I have felt pain and loneliness. I feel I have the experience to help others.
