Jill, you have great words of wisdom. I never had little ones in my abuse and I can imagine. Are you doing ok? I see you wrote that you are in a second abusive relationship. If you stop by here again, I got your email about groups, did you get my response, I will do what I can to help you and others find that group on yahoo.My email is racheal101@yahoo.com. Go to yahoo and look up groups, it is under domestic violence survivors. You have to register with them through your email. In the mean time, I hope you have support you need. I will continue to check on here. Stay safe, coleen
