Comment from Wayne Fowler
I would wage that grammar and punctuation are about the last things on your mind when you pen these memories, feelings, and deep-felt emotions. Here are a couple glitches.
landed me fave first on a fireplace. - (face)
I tried my best to help her in the kitchen but, had no clue what she was cooking. - You don't need this comma.
Best wishes.

Punctuation is not my strong suit, that's true. Although i'm a better speller. Yeah, I have to go through this kind of mental exercise when I write a chapter. Kinda like a jogger would warm up his muscles before his jog. I must prepare my mind to go back there again. That's why I talk about how i'm feeling going in.Can I talk about how i'm feeling going out. Thank you for the suggestions for corrections to those.I appreciate most of all! You the best Wayne!

My heart bleeds when I read these happenings, I can tell you, as a father of two girls, the protective heart beats stronger, and I only have one granddaughter, but the same beats for her. I don't understand the male that doesn't feel that. My grandsons I feel for but in a different way, beautifully written, blessings Lea, Roy
Typo : That landed me (fave) first. Face?

Comment from CrystieCookie999
This is another interesting chapter in that it helps show how a third person can help a family that is trying to avoid an abuser in the family or live around his anger. Just being a support is what is exemplified here. Nice share.

Comment from Pearl Edwards
I'm sure you were a good support for Mrs. D when she realised you knew what she was going through and that you have been strong enough to get through it and take the slow and winding road to personal strength.
Well done, Lea.
cheers

Hello Lea,
sometimes just being with someone who has experienced the same thing you have can be comforting. One of the worst things in the world is to believe that you are alone, that no one else will understand. Thanks for sharing this gal.
Have a blessed evening.

You're absolutely right about that and I know the feeling very well. Thank you again for your review and your time. I'm always happy to receive and appreciate the perspective of your thinking as it is pretty practical and to the point. I appreciate that about you thank you so much!

Please accept a virtual six on this. Such experiences are difficult to retell because it means that you are going to be living what happened all over again. Trauma can throw a long shadow that likes to follow you darkly into the future. X X Lily

Comment from Ric Myworld
Fear is the greatest deterrent in the world, it keeps most of us from fighting back. As the saying goes, "better late than never," I'm glad to see you speaking out. Now, I just everyone decides to listen, as it's never too late for some form of justice. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from EILEEN LAW
Weeping - not weaping - however it was very engaging and I love how you tried to engage her children. These memories hold us like a barbed wire cradle. There is no comfortable place to be.
Keep writing - it needs to be said.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
I feel no pressure reading your words Lea, only sadness that these things happen to innocent people who are just trying to live their best life. Bullies leave a trail of sorrow in their wake.
Suggestion for this line:
(I heard a woman (weeping)
Another fine chapter Lea, keep going as we are listening.
Love Dolly x x x

Comment from barbara.wilkey
No woman should ever have to put up living like this no matter who the man is. Thank you for sharing this story. It needs to be told.
I sometimes think that we know it before the perpetrator does. & I understood the fear and nervousness that she was experiencing. & I wanted to tell her that because I didn't know it until I finally made the connection myself. & She came to realize that I knew what she was going through. (you can omit 'that' it's not needed)
