The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Children typically love both of their parents and are the ones hurt the most in the event of a divorce. Kids are known to blame themselves for the demise of their parents marriage.



It is bad enough when parents who are not famous bad-mouth their soon to be ex spouse or ex spouse. The child is hurt because someone is talking about one of their parents and often times gets pulled into a tug of war between two adults.



Recently two famous couples have decided to air the dirty laundry about their busted marriages in the press. The children have to be suffering. Alec Baldwin was wrong to leave the message he did on his daughter's voice mail. Words like that could hurt a child and often times hurt more than a fist.

Among other things said on the voice mail, Baldwin called his daughter a rude, thoughtless little pig. This would have been upsetting to his daughter if she was the only one to have heard it. But no. Her mother thinks it is a wonderful idea to release a copy of the voice mail to the press. What kind of mother would do this? Not a very good one in my opinion. Now, this child will go to school and her from her classmates about this. Children are known for being mean and cruel. What happens when this little girl is called a little pig by her classmates? I am wondering if either of these parents need custody of their daughter? Are there a set of grandparents that could step in and raise this child?



The former govenor of New Jersery and his wife are in a custody battle for their five year old daughter. You may remember that this particular govenor resigned his office and admitted to having an affair. He also revealed he is gay. Now being gay has nothing to do with his ability to raise a child in my opinion. What I am questioning is why he or his ex-wife would write tell-all books about their marriage and break-up? I am sure that neither book is very positive about the other parent. This child will have to read this someday. Did they even think that this girl could be hurt by what they say about her other parent? The mother is currently making the rounds of the talk shows to tell her side of the story. I think both of these people are more interested in getting their side of the story out than with the welfare of their child.

Two years ago, my son and another child set fire to a chair in a friend of mine's living room. Luckily, the house did not burn all the way down and no-one was hurt or killed. The house did suffer extensive smoke damage. I was lead to believe that my son was the main culprit. In fact, the other child's grandmother informed me that her grandson was a good boy, minded and would never do anything like this. I did not pay her any attention and knew they would have additional problems with this boy. I went ahead and got my son help for this. He was having other problems, since he survived my marriage to his abusive father as well as I did. At the present, my son is doing fine. The same cannot be said about the other boy.



My friend, Nthaniel (He has a profile on the Rave), is normally the one who will tell someone the truth even if others are trying to keep it from them. He is not one for lies. He was the one who told me the truth about the house fire. Apparently, the boy who was called everything short of an angel by his grandmother was smoking his father's cigarette butts while sitting in the chair that caught fire. The ashtray tipped over and that caught the chair on fire. My son did get the cigarette lighter for the older boy and should have informed an adult in the house that the other boy was trying to smoke. He also should not have waited for an adult to discover the fire. He should have said something as soon as he saw the chair was on fire. I will not act like he was innocent in the stituation.



Recently, I heard that the other boy in the incident (not my son) was caught by his mother receiving oral sex from his seven year old half-sister. First of all, this all but screams out to me that the children in this house have either been sexually abused or exposed to things that children should not be seeing. Possibly even both. The family told people that CPS was involved. I now know they were not. The boy was removed from his home and is now living with the grandmother who thought he was such a little angel two years ago. I found out later through someone who works for the state and could check for an open case on the stitutation that no report was made to CPS (Children's Protective Service) and they were not involved. So once again this family covers up for this young boy and probably are more concerned with covering some adults' behinds then getting some children the help they need.



It is very probable that this boy is already a predator and will continue to be a sex offender. The family should be concerned that this young man will do something to another child. I went ahead and made a report. This is not something I would normally do. But if this child is already doing this kind of stuff , who is to say he will not continue and another child will get hurt. I will not be able to live with myself knowing that is a possibility and I did nothing.
