Mmmm! Methinks maybe Paul is the one getting defensive now? I think you were pretty tough on Laughing, and when she gives her opinion of your read on her sitch, you withdraw. I have never thought Laughing to be defensive, or controlling ... quite the opposite. I thought she was somewhat too easy on her H ... maybe, for the sake of the children, which is a good reason. But, he has shown how far he is willing to go (I mean, really, what's with the veiled threat on her life), so I say, go all out, Laughing, protect yourself and your children, any way you can within the bounds of the law.

As for life .... it isn't fair or perfect, and why shouldn't we try and protect our kids as much from the bad stuff as possible. We can never completely protect them, because life has a way of getting it's negativity through no matter how we try to keep it out.

Take care, Laughing. Hoping you have a good week, and know that things will work for the best, ultimately. If there is any justice in the world, that is. \:\)
