the men who have abused you even when you have left still think they can control you and get the law enforcement behind them and make you look like the bad party. I'm the daughter to the last response and i've just about had it with being so kind and generous to a man who does not care about how our son feels at night when he's crying out for his mother night after night. My son was kidnapped from me after I took a beating and left his mother stole him from me and kept him from an innocent and good mother. It is just sick and twisted right?? and no law enforcement thinks they can do anyhting about it(long story there) well I'm going stand up for what is right and I'll fight till I can't speak no more this fight in america is far from over victims we need to become the intimidator and fight back even if we have to find a judge who will listen even if it's out of are own country to get rights look up the aclu...and get involved!
