Hi Sue,

Welcome aboard. Like Anthony I cannot believe the things that happen to little children. I had a rough start in the world myself but I was one of the lucky ones I guess, my biological father was a bastard (to be nice), my stepfather not much better but thank the lord I had my mum. It would have been a lot harder for me without her and I imagine I could have well ended up where you are now. The anger I feel for adults hurting little ones is indescribable. Anyhow like Anthony has said we 'fockerise' our little one so he never has to grow up with the crap that adults dish out for kids. I wish more people would realise what a blessing children really are perhaps then they would hold more value in the world.

Thankyou for coming to the forum. I hope that you can get some help here even if all it is for you is a place to vent. Take care, I am sure you can benefit from the wealth of experience from the other people on this forum.
