Well, if it wasn't what True meant, it should be. Brooklyn, that was very well put.

Grr, I've been lucky that with XH living in another city, avoiding anyone and everyone we ever knew, I have not had any 'reports'. Still, the kids ( my stepsons ) slip up every now and then and say something. I think that in some still, small place inside of us, we will always be pained by this kind of info, but it becomes easier and easier for the wound to heal.
