It's an appalling problem ( though of course this is no excuse).Frances Garroodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614916006798375706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132582821010486689.post-54904587610838678932012-05-04T09:49:30.400+01:002012-05-04T09:49:30.400+01:00Thanks, Teresa.

I can't imagine anything worse than a father who sexually abuses his own children (and now, probably, the girlfriend's children).<br />KKay L.

Even if the law cannot touch him, she has a responsibility not to expose other kids to the same risk. What a tragic and horrible story this is.Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.com
