Hello Lea,
I find it interesting that the people who uphold the law are quick to cover their interests (or asses, as the case may be). How do you obtain justice when the truth isn't allowed to be told in all the gory details, however uncomfortable it may be. Honestly gal, I think you and your sisters are lucky to be alive. Your mother sounds like she should have been or perhaps still should be, institutionalized. Your grandmother, if she's still alive should be in jail, along with Mrs. D's husband. I wish you all the best gal. Hang in there.
Have a blessed evening,
Tom

Wow. Powerful, Lea. It seems so much more real seeing it written this way in official forms, and it fully confirms everything you've told us so far in your books. It's a shame a lot has been redacted. It's horrible enough what is there, and the redacted parts are likely even worse.

What is the endgame here? Are you hoping to bring suit against social services, your mother, who exactly? You certainly seem to have a great case against whomever it may be.

One thing: I got a little confused at times with all the different fonts and colors. I wasn't always sure if what was said was in the official documents, your recollections, or just what all the parts were. Perhaps if you could limit this to a few well-chosen fonts, and possibly describe what each one stands for, it would be helpful to us. Just a thought. - Jim

This work has reached the exceptional level

Disturbing and mirrors since if my own paperwork.

We struggle to be adults in a world where we didn't understand what that meant.

Now at a maturity that should have been achieved earlier. We open the veil and peer at our own horrors.

My heart and prayers go out to you.

the first line that said and I quote, (The)

She describes her as a very distant child with no friends. bosses other children around and cannot play with them. (I'm struggling with this because if it's a quote, it should be left alone, but if it's a typo, it needs to be fixed. 'Bosses')

her personal habits are poor and she won't bathe for a week and consequently the children call her 'stinky.' (Her & comma after 'poor,')

If we were dirty it was because of her, not because of us, (comm after 'dirty')

She resented me the most, I you go upbut general distaste of us is apparent in the next combined quotes. (doesn't make sense, something is missing)

Her expectat we wions of the children (What??)

I stopped editing here. You will need to edit more.

A women like that should never have had children. I can't imagined how any child under those circumstances could have had a normal childhood. Maybe she hated your real father and projected her feelings for him on to you from the beginning. I don't know what kind of childhood she had but she, herself, must have been damaged before you were even born. You would have been better off growing on un foster care. How you tuned out to be like you are is only by the grace of God. What are you hoping to so about it at this point?

    I will sue social services not for me but for the future's children and for the ones still falling through the cracks when I'm finished writing about this I will put it on the shelf for those to read and hope that the message gets through. When there's no more left to say I shall wipe my hands clean of it all in the meantime life marches on and I will enjoy it as best as I can yes my mother is damaged she would have to be to be the way she is. Thank you my friend for your fine review I'm always happy to see you you know I really enjoy your writing to congratulations on your contest when I hope that you're having a wonderful evening thanks again!

This is a case isn't it, Lea, of everything you claim against your mother will be counter-claimed by her and she has the upper hand because of all the backing she'll get from your grandmother and the authorities. She's smart, determined in her self-justification and this reminds me of a post I've read about current wars and the stalemate of intransigent ideologies on either part. You have an absolute right to contest her lies but do you have enough legal evidence to cut through them? Your synopsis offers a glimpse of this dilemma, though, at times, sounding a bit muddled, but still horrifying on an emotional level. The problem is that the courts have to act on more than mere emotion, no matter how strongly that's portrayed. I need to read more.... Take care, Debbie x

    Thank you my friend we meet with the lawyer tomorrow evening apparently we have a very good case it's more about what we don't have and what we do. It is social services that I will take to court and not only because of my experience but because of children who may still be falling through the cracks. I thank you again Debbie for your fine review and happy to see you here as always and your comments are gold I hope your evening is great too!

No matter how a child acts up and behaves badly, you do not deserve to be beaten and starved like you have been. My own Grandchildren can display all the traits you mention and they are not beaten or ill-treated. It sounds like you were a lively child with lots of potential to me.

We have to accept in life that some Mothers are not maternal and dislike their own offspring. They are just not cut out to be Mothers. This is the case with your Mother, Lea.

You have to come to terms with the fact that your Mother sees you as trouble, she dislikes you and has done since you were born. Having said that, it does not mean that you have dislike yourself. We cannot be liked by everyone in life and you may grieve for the Mother you wished you had, but it things will never change.

It is hard to move on and put the past behind you, but dwelling on all the pain and hurt of your childhood will eventually ruin your future.

Another fine chapter Lea, love Dolly x
