when my twin brother and I were little my parents went through an UGLY divorce . My dad is well connected and got full custody. We were told by him his new girlfriend and his family she abandoned us, she was in prison , she was a crazy drunk ,it changed periodically. I never believed that because our mom's friends used to give us cards and letters from mom that we had hidden in a special place.In the last year and half since we became legal adults my brother and I have been reconnecting with her and IT'S AWESOME . I am trying to be happy and thankful that mom is here in my life.that I have a cool job as a comic book maven.The way we were taken from our mom in the middle of the night still messes with me and I am hurt that we were used like chess pieces in a petty stupid game.Also hurt They neglected my brother's care ( he has downs and a lot of other problems and has to be taken care of like a little kid) and I had to go to court and legally become his guardian.

    Sad truth is most times kids are the pieces in the game that is a big back and forth like politicians, this person did this and that and it's usually ALL negative mud slinging and not stoppiing to think how lids are affected. All the parents thinks about is WINNING the court battle. That type of crap is why I have not talked to my mom in over 10 years. She's conniving, manipulative, liar, and she broke #1 cardinal rule of parenting - LOVE ALL YOUR KIDS EQUALLY. Yea, the bitch played favorites, even after the oldest died in 1999. I have nothing to say to her after all these years.
