My son turned 18 March. Day after his birthday I blocked his dad on everything!!! I never have to see or speak to him again and I feel so light and free now
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
As far as the court system and her obligations she’s done. I think that’s what she meant. Sorry about your parents. Mine were the same. It was just common knowledge they wouldn’t and couldn’t communicate.
Sometimes the mental things we deal with can be more difficult than the physical things. ❤❤❤
I watched every second of you on housewives. It was 100% evident when you referenced being without your daughter how much of an impact it had on you. I felt that through the TV.
I’m so grateful that you are sharing your experience. It has humanized mine. I see you. I hear you. I believe you. This kind of vulnerability, transparency and openness will change lives. I wish I would’ve had this to listen to going thru my abusive divorce 10 years ago. This is so cathartic and healing. Thank you. God bless you. From one mom to another: I’m so proud of you.
❤️❤️❤️
🌹This divorce series is by far the best advice, most raw experience and enduring inspiration I have ever heard. This is valuable information that women of all ages need to hear. Thank you Bethenny for continuing to inspire me. ~Love&Light♥️Carli xx
Thanks for following along! Keep listening ❤️
She should write a book from start to finish regarding divorce starting from the choice of partner before marriage.
I have the same issues. My mom still tells me I’m bad all the time. With age I have come to be able to look at my life and tell myself I’m not bad, I’m actually lovely.
Hi. Im so sorry you've gone through that! But im certain you would not allow other people to say cruel things like that to you. Just because she has the title of 'mother' does not mean she's allowed to either.
❤️❤️❤️
If they wanted a healthy relationship with Brynn why did they torture you? Somethings not right in the head with that family. They should be ashamed of themselves.
Because their actions didn't match their words. They were disingenuous and only wanted to hurt Bethany...anything else they said was a lie. Jason and his creepy parents were simply awful!
Those Hoppys think BF used JH to have a child. Once it became clear the relationship was bad she finally pulled the plug on the marriage. JH felt duped (he wasn't) and started to punish BF. Plus he knew about the shady legal work he manipulated and was probably nervous it would be found out. JH knew he could not out spend her on lawyers but he could make her day to day life miserable. He felt that what ever the means neccesary he was going to make BF PAY. The Hoppy's joined together to triple team BF and drive her out of the apartment and keep BH away from BF. At this point he hated BF more than he loved BH.I hope that has changed.
Thanks for watching xo
Why do you think Jason turned out like he did apple doesn’t fall far from the tree!
My guess is the little green monster was at play here.
That was a good one: “do not marry someone you don’t want to go through the divorce with”
I can really empathize with having no family and having to do it alone. It’s so hard and no one gets it.
Thanks for watching ❤️
Yes, I echo that too. Thanks for reminding me. The way she validates the isolation you feel. So powerful. I would be the family less one too so that hit different. So many insights. But they hurt her too much. My heart breaks for the pain she was feeling in public. While having to do it alone.
Sounds like a nightmare you cant wake up from, as you go insane from the gas lighting and the feeling of isolation and paranoia. Everyone needs a copilot, an advocate next to them in life, to stand as a witness in the dark times.
“Do not marry someone that you would not want to be divorced from!” ~ such a profound and eye opening statement 👏🏼👏🏼.
Wasn’t that a life changing statement.
🎯🎯🎯
I know motherhood is important to you, but I can't wait until you can go into detail about your ex experience. Covert narcs try to destroy every single aspect of your life. You are a survivor. You did it! Thank God! You have every right to feel bad. I think the psychological abuse was way worse than physical abuse.
Yes! Spot on! Like so many of us, I spent 10 years suffering in the help of my abusive marriage in SILENCE. Nobody knew what I was going through. This was followed by a 7 year of divorce hell. Again, I dealt with it pretty much on my own while juggling life. I wish I could have had this kind of message to listen to and to feel like I wasn't the only one suffering like this. I know these videos are helping women today.
So important to share with other women. Keep listening, spread the word!
I witnessed two good friends each have amicable divorces and was convinced this would be my story too. Not so. When I told my ex that I wanted a divorce he said, “If you think I’m going to make this easy on you, you don’t know me at all.”
Contrast this to my current spouse who replied to his ex when she asked for a divorce- he told her, “Let’s make this as quick and painless as possible for us and the sake of our child.”
These detailed episodes are my favorite! I swear, years ago with all the tabloid news on your divorce and never hearing about it from you I'd say, "one of these days she's gonna be able to let it all go and tell us what the hell was really going on." I'm so glad you're telling it now but I'm sorry you had to live through it at all. I played the long game once and it was pure hell!
❤️❤️❤️
I hope whoever he’s dating watches these videos and runs
😮
I remember trying to follow the rules, even when he didn't. With a smile on his face, he would pick up the kids while I was freaking out inside. I get your truth, Bethenny. I'm sorry.
Would love to see you interview Tina Swithin from One Mom’s Battle. She’s an amazing advocate. Thank you for sharing. My life was destroyed by my ex and I will never recover from the legal/financial/verbal/mental abuse and years of continued control by having to co-parent with someone who has no interest in co-parenting, but sees a family court order as a way to continue their abuse
Imagine that 70% of mothers feel like this every day. This is more normal than people think. It amazes me of the luxuries others have and don't realize it or dont care
Probably more! But you nailed it when you said “More normal than you think”!
Yes because insecure, immature m'en can be extremely petty when a woman leaves them. It's childish "men". Just watching their show together left me emotionally drained, you could feel the tension throughout the show.
My divorce was terrible but everyday I thank God my children were grown and I didn’t have to deal with Family Court. I can’t imagine that nightmare! 😢
Thanks for watching xo
He was despicable. And his parents sounded like a nightmare
And you know this how? Why do you automatically believe her side of the story ONLY!
Why DON'T you?
@@RobMathMiller You know how we know? 10 years! It wasn’t her that kept the divorce going. She said she wanted to amicably end it for the sake of their child. Don’t be obtuse. This isn’t that difficult. TEN YEARS!
Is that you Jason?
@Rob Miller Try to keep up.
You pray for rain, you gotta deal with the mud too. That's a part of it-Denzel Washington - I learned this the very HARD way from age 44 to 48.
I’m so sorry you went through this. I have a similar experience and I went to two years of hell getting divorced. The hell the ex caused started in 2009 and got so bad in 2013 and 2014. The ex tried to kill me in 2014 and that flipped a switch in me and made me leave! The ex involved his family and they hated me for whatever made up reasons they came up with. He and his family (especially his mother) tortured me!
The ex continues bothering me and demanding money from me till today … which is absolutely crazy, especially since he is college educated and has other professional credentials, yet absolutely REFUSES TO WORK!
He’s not a man at all and his main goal is to still try to abuse me.
Growing up in an abusive home, I think one might be more tolerant of rotten behavior, to our own detriment.
I don’t understand how Bryn can have a great relationship with him knowing what he did to you. Cuz being good to her doesn’t negate how he was with you. She will have to realize this at some point and realize how NOT OKAY that was.
or maybe it was more her than him!
People don't really feel others pain anymore, and she's young still, needs to have him in her life . However when she's older and has children she'll find out and then she'll understand and apologize for not seeing how bad it really was for her mom .
Bethany going to be breathing down her son in laws neck , make him already sign divorce papers for later lol
It’s like my parents divorce. My dad treated my mom not so great. I find it very off putting but I’m not married to him. I’m his daughter-different relationship. You learn to separate the two. He’s been a good dad to me just like Brynn’s father has to her.
We don’t know all of it. I have a feeling she sees it. Also I think she’s young it’s complicated and we should leave that part alone.
A good father and a bad husband -both can be true.
Bethenny, I cannot even tell you how impactful these are. Please keep doing them because we really need them as women. I as well married a “nice guy” who turned into a torture nightmare. He bombed me and I didn’t notice and a few years later everything I did was wrong, and he almost brainwashed me into thinking that. I started a business securities, education and licensing as in series 65 and series 7. My background is in financial planning and wealth management and he told me I would never be able to do it. I finished my MBA and my business is going. We just initiated divorce and it’s been a nightmare.
I wish I would have known that you’re telling us now. I can relate beyond belief and keep putting these out there. I’ve always been a huge fan of yours for the past few years and read your book and watch you speak. Please keep it coming!!
I'm not crying 😢, you're crying! You get me ev damn time! I've lived this HELL & am Clawing my way back from it 7 yrs now. THX SO MUCH FOR DOING THIS!!❤
Thanks for watching ❤️
Every judge in America: When 2 adults refuse to act like adults during separation, they pay other adults to decide their & their children’s fate. Ridiculous.
Bethenny i hear your message. society must see the scale of spousal abuse. my ex was a pain in the ass, but he is a good guy & brilliant father- i do personally believe that people like me shudnt clog up the legal system..my ex is a sensible man..what you endured was that of a madman. much love & admiration from Scotland.❤
Thanks for watching ❤️
I lived this for 18 years. Everything was to torture me and unfortunately my child. I’m in trauma therapy now to deal with it. His parents had the money for attorneys, I did not. Everything we said to each other was in writing. It was sick. The mental abuse was torture.
I need the rest of the notary story and his mom. How on earth was she able to prove the apartment was never really his?!
I’m still stuck on this as well! I hope Bethenny goes back to this to describe how it transpired.
He silenced her. I watched a video she reposted after taking it down ..the part where she says he called her a piece of shit , that was removed when it was reposted. It sucksss i wanna hear the story i fucking hate him
She says it in the video called "Power Struggle Triggers" between minutes 16 and 18.

I can feel the torture you went through. As you talk about it you a remembering other times of torture so much so you aren’t finishing a thought. I can’t imagine the torture you have endured. No one should have to endure this. You are an amazing mother. Thanks for sharing this, it has to be so hard bringing up this trauma. 🥰
I think this cathartic for Bethany to talk it out. Now it's done, put it in a box and bury it. New beginnings, new future. Enjoy what you have now with your sweet Daughter 🎉❤. Sending hugs from Rosie O 🏴

Mental torture is a whole other thing imo, horrific
You're so right. People take up resources and abuse the system and everyone else suffers for it. I think the women who make false accusations and claims need to be held accountable in a major way to send a message bc we may not want to believe it but it's very common!
This made me bawl. But helped me to know I’m not alone. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Hey.... I still have all my binders showing laying out the shenanigans that went on. My oldest is 30, youngest is 28. I haven't looked at them for years but I know where they are. It's proof of the crap, the garbage and frustrating BS. I see you. You see me. Thank you B
OMG! The phone ring and stop. The manipulation, the control. Jaxon was 1st gaslighting you and 2.making you jump through hoops.
I’m going through this now. Divorcing a narcissist after 23 years and it is hell. No court but having to live with him until our house sells. It sucks.
There is such a thing as Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress
Survivor of 23 years of torture. My kids are the best humans I know. I did it all for them. I am older and alone but at least I am free. I believe you!
ugh freedom from them is a gift…
Keep listening ❤
Is there an equivalent award to an Emmy, Tony, etc( not saying she is acting about any of this) for RUclips content? This series is so raw and vulnerable, and so helpful for so many people. Bethany, never question your worth beyond your financial worth. You are a diamond. You have weathered so many storms in your life. You will be blessed ten fold for what you do for people. Breathe! You are enough and you are seen, truly seen.
A precious, rare raw, uncut diamond 💎
❤❤❤
I’m happy that you’ve come out - and went through torture during my divorce.
Leaving is the most dangerous part. There’s many cases that parents have lost control and things spin out of control.
I am so PROUD of you!! You did it you came through the fire you did your VERY best you had no one to hold you and say it's all going to work out and STILL you did it and I could not be PROUDER of you!! Love always Kelli
❤️❤️❤️
Wow when you said “it was embedded in my head, i’m bad mother”. That sentence right there hit me so hard it took my breath away. That is exactly how I felt and was treated… Wow.
I feel this to my core! I am so sorry Bethany that that cruel human being is so incredibly sick that he felt he had to torture the mother of his child! You are one very strong woman, and an amazing mother!
❤❤❤
I’m going through this agony right now (no child involved, thankfully) but yes, I have been living the rest of the full catastrophe, every single day, for years, and I get it. I sometimes want to scream “There is no one who understands this hell” The injustice is staggering, the lies, the manipulations, the veiled threats, and it’s a desperate and lonely place to be. Thank you for bravely sharing. ❤
Keep listening ❤️
So heartbroken that you went through all of this. This vlog is going to be so powerful for so many people.. Love you B!
Keep listening ❤️
All I can say for sure is, right now, your daughter seems extremely well adjusted and confident and just puts a big smile on my face and I dislike most people I see on here these days
Right she’s such a well rounded, sweet, child. You can just tell. She did a good job w her absolutely.
Aww, thank you!
Wow Bethenny I'm so sorry! No one deserves to go through that ❤
❤️❤️❤️
I hear you 💕 It is very hard to articulate trauma and feelings around divorce without feeling petty, sad, traumatised, gaslit , scared etc and words can't (sometimes ) make anyone around you understand the core of what is ripping you apart. Sadly It can be triggering for the rest of your life out of the blue. What you just hope in the end is that the relationship with your child or children is one of love and understanding because after all most of the time that's all we were fighting for to begin with ♥🙏 xx
Thanks for watching!
I used to think that you were so mean on the show. After being in a relationship with a malignant covert narc for 7 years, I believe every word you are saying about your ex husband. You get subjected to so much reactive abuse, gaslighting, and feel crazy. I get it! He psychologically raped you and terrorized you. Nobody understands you on the outside. They just call you the abuser because you are reacting to their psycho behavior. I was born in darkness too and you get into a relationship with covert narc, and you will never be the same again.
💯💯💯
Reactive abuse is literal hell. My husband went through it for 16 yrs. And like most narcissists she claimed to be the victim. She is a terrible person. (Not Bethany.)
It's tremendous what people can do to eachother.
100% Amen.
100% True is hard to watch the raw emotion when she talks about it but GOD if she feels like this now, in real time she must have been a controled (cause she had to work and live) wreak inside.
On the show with J you could see you were absolutely miserable and knew you made a huge mistake and I'm so sorry you went through this..
I wish there was a WOMENS ADVOCACY group to HELP WOMEN navigate the legal system!! For FREE!! WHEN I make my 1st million, I will organize some HUGE and WIDELY KNOWN, ALL OVER the world, and ALSO SAFE HOUSES, with free THERAPY and ANGEL NETWORKS for funding to start over!! WOMEN should be helping WOMEN!!
Keep listening ❤️
I can hear the pain in your voice. No amount of money can fix the heartache of being separated from a child. Your resilience is commendable ❤
❤❤❤
You are so brave Bethenny. I have been watching you over the years. I am very grateful for your vulnerability. I just wrapped up my two year divorce *not ten years* but it was five years of deep pain & perseverance (relationship-divorce). You carry so so much wisdom from all of your experience and you share it in such a way that it feels like you are pouring your heart and soul out to a best friend. Your testimony is going to help so many. I am truly sorry for all of the heartbreak you have suffered, from the recent loss of your mother to all of the torture in your marriage and divorce. I'm praying all of God's best on the journey ahead, for you and Brynn.
Aww, thank you xoxo
Bethenny, you should take a poll on how many people would still choose marriage & having kids now verses when they got married/had kids.
It would be a good topic for your discussion on marriage/divorce. It might open some young ppls eyes to not rush into marriage..
He didn't want to divorce and he lashed out. Terrible. I hope you're in a much better place. I always wondered what happened. I'm so sorry for this torture Bethenny but you've always been so strong and I appreciate your sharing this with us. I love seeing your relationship with Bryn on IG. It looks like she's the sweetest daughter and you're the best mom! I think your relationship is beautiful. ❤
Side note, I love your friendship with Alex on the Rhony show. It looked genuine and you girls were the most alike and low maintenance.
Aww, thank you xo
💔 I can relate to this.. 💯..
In time, you will understand that the experience was an essential part of your personal healing and your soul's evolution.
You, Bethenny, are helping many achieve self awareness, especially your daughter.
Thanks for watching! Share with other women ❤️
It was all control, and it’s sickening. At some point parents you do have to do what’s best and document. When I finally stopped following certain rules and put my foot down and showed I wasn’t scared the “game” changed!! Negotiating less money, negotiating a better child schedule plan, etc., if your doing that and they aren’t budging, then it’s a game to them! You can be a normal person like myself, but the control to them is greater than their love for the child! Show no emotion because if they know you want something or certain day or something planned, they will withhold your child….they don’t go by an rules but expect you too!
Wow! And he looked like a nice person. Never judge a book by its cover. If people show you who they are, believe it. How someone can treat the mother of his child in such a way is incomprehensible and disgusting. All the best Bethenny!
There’s the stress and the criticism by the whole world every minute and trying to mother. I completely get it. It’s magnified for u in the press and social media and the court of public opinion
18:15 God how I want to hear details on the Miami trip!!! That was probably the most iconic Housewives moment for me!
When Dennis died, it was Jason’s turn to have custody of Bryn. Bethenny asked if she could change the schedule so that Bryn could be with her. Jason refused. That’s only one example of his rigidity and lack of understanding. He is a sick and pathetic excuse for a father.
I wonder if the awful father and grandparents bad mouth Bethenny at ever opportunity? Does Bryn hear this?
Wow! I didn’t hear about that. What an ass. That’s the example of hating your ex more than loving your child 😢❤
I wish she would invite a clinical psychologist to this vlog to explain how the psychological weapons at play to win in the end. Men want to win. I'm not the expert so it would help for women unmarried and divorcing to understand the different male -female perspectives.
Horrible person.. Jason is just a total pos. Happy he has a good relationship with her but the torture he inflicted on you should be punishable.
I just want to hug you Bethany!!!! So happy you are out of that nightmare!
❤❤❤
Your Ex was such a dick. You don’t have to marry again… you can have a successful relationship without the paperwork. ❤
Thank you for sharing this. I am deep in this now and it is torture. Its the darkest experience. We are survivors. Thank you for sharing every single thought to a T
Thanks for watching xo
I had to hear this episode 2x . It's incredible the challenges you faced. Your advice on what to seek and watch out for in a partner/potential spouse was invaluable. Thank you for sharing, this was a powerful message.
Love that you watched!
You should definitely end with an episode on how to heal after it’s all finally over. Also an episode on how to navigate with the children during such a contentious time.
Thank you so much for reliving this horrific experience you are going to help so many women and I hope it helps you heal even a little and feel validated that you never ever deserved any of the treatment you received. So many of us women suffer in silence and you are giving us all a voice
So important to share with other women. Keep watching, spread the word!
This is my favorite version of Bethany! So important and hopefully empowering ❤❤
Now if you could only learn to spell her name!
Love that you watched ❤️
I just relate to you in your experience SO much B! Unfortunately it's not for the good reasons ... You told it so well. Now look at you! Xoxoxo
I wish I would have had this when I was trying so hard to get divorced. But I realize the value of processing it now. Thank you I’m so grateful to hear your story.
Thanks for watching!
I can tell how cathartic this is for you. You are getting all this toxic crap out but God is using it for the greater good. You are blessed Bethenny don’t ever forget that ❤
Thanks for watching xo
I’m more disgusted with his parents….. but as they say ‘the apple falls under the apple tree’.
Only getting her side of story, we all know there are 2 sides!!
@@chiefswife1212 Actually there are 3 sides. Hers,his, and the truth!
My ex is so toxic that I cannot talk to him so we parallel parent and text/email. He doesn't like my boundaries but it's the only workable solution for peace of mind.
This makes me want to hug my very easy to divorce ex we still live in the same house and are with the last of our kids. I had never given thought to how very very lucky my family has been. We have a disabled child who we both love more than we disliked each other.
Bethenny, this series around the topic of & you sharing your experience (which I feel no words can correctly express what you & your daughter went through...) In my own opinion, anyone contemplating getting married could do with watching first. If it helps them to write down questions legal or otherwise to get answers to prior to moving ahead with marriage, yee ha. You are likely helping many many more people than you may have previously thought.
You are amazingly strong, passionate & resilient. 🤗
Love that you watched ❤️
God the cinema thanksgiving part was heartbreaking as a mom of 2 little girls who are my world. You are so strong ❤
We hear you now girl. Time to heal (easier said then done).
❤❤❤
Imagine the all the women who don't have the resources to fight a psycho through the system. You just give up. You can't skip work to talk to an attorney. You don't even have an attorney. So you believe you're the worst mother and you give them everything. The little that you had. You just leave it. You let them make the rules and you try to play by them. It's a nightmare.
So true. So so true.
This podcast is so critically important for young girls, and even women my age to watch. Some very raw, but needed truth.
Keep watching! Share with other women ❤️
Bethany, I am sorry you and your daughter had to go through this. There are, however, many woman that live with active alcoholics that go through very similar lonely, demeaning, uncertain situations. Glad you found your resources.
❤️❤️❤️
People in general want to be heard, seen and believed. We can’t be narcissistic in a relationship, it takes two baby.
Matthew 6:33 👑
Bethany how old were you during this time? I ask because ages 35-42 is a "Crisis and questioning" era or the 5th 7 year cycle, regarding the soul cycle theory. I went through something similar. I see, hear and understand you, you're very strong for enduring this. Thanks for bearing your soul and telling your truth.
Thanks for watching!
Bethenny, my heart aches for you. So sorry for the pain and torture you went through. I hope you are healing❤️
❤️❤️❤️
Can really see how much you adore Brynn❤everything you have done ...putting youre daughter first her well being and making sure she has a good relationship with her other family members...shows youre pure love for youre child .You are fkn awesome Bethany ...if you see this comment remember you are an inspiration and when shes older Brynn will respect and appreciate everything you have done for her❤❤❤big hugs from uk 🫶🙏✨
❤❤❤
Did Brinn's father bad mouth you to her? How does she handle that? Thanks.
I wish I could reach through RUclips and see you in person and tell you that I understand, I KNOW THIS TRUTH. I LIVED IT TOO. I’m so sorry and my heart goes out to all of us that lived through this.
I learned in my divorce that I am the o my one I can truly rely on. I have friends, I am remarried (and it’s wonderful), I have family- but the only person I can truly rely on is myself. I heard this when I was going through my divorce hell and it’s become my motto, “The Devil whispered to me ‘The storm is coming.’ I turned to the Devil and replied, ‘I AM THE STORM!’” I no longer live in fear and I know my own strength for the first time in my life. I don’t wish this on anyone, but I wanted to let you know I see you and hear you and I understand. Others only see pieces, only we know the entire truth and hell we survived. Keep on keeping on mama ❤
❤❤❤

You poor woman….it’s so true though…if i would talk about it, my closest friends didn’t get it. When I would try to explain it, it would “sound” so minimal coming out of my mouth. And the man they knew in public was quiet and charming so…I finally realized after years and years, that no body really cares. You cannot understand unless you have experienced it.
Eyes and ears wide open. I am perched and listening to every word. BF is our true BFF. This wisdom was hard won. You can hear it. As someone who has not married a few times because the math just wasn’t mathing - but BF is bringing language and legal lexicon to it. Wow. I appreciate you so much for this. I’m not clamoring but I’m listening. I’m your other audience (older/partnered/unmarried) we’re listening too. So thank you.
Love that you watched xo
The cracks become craters. Yep
Def look at the father.
My husband and I waited 30 years to get married. It was mainly after life benefits and he has great insurance. Otherwise we’d still be co-habituating.
Same
I say it every video and ill say it again thank you so much for being vulnerable, its so hard to re-live all this trauma bc you try to let it go and move on but its so helpful to people too❤ when you said this was 20%of our lives I was like oh my gosh it was😥 thank the Lord its over now. The torture and mental abuse you went through and the stuff thats so ridiculous and petty you dont want to say I understand all of it.
Love that you watched xo
You were mercilessly abused. I was, too. Parental abuse, especially of mothers during a divorce 😢 thank you much for illuminating this because so many people are being abused
So important to share with other women. Keep listening, spread the word ❤
Court was insane. Everytime we met it was a carry over to another 3 mo ths or something. Its was so inefficient. Never mind paying 1k to the lawyer everytime they went to the courthouse. Its shouldve been quick. Instead it was years and years but i couldnt imagine 10 years plus the millions you spent. 💔
I really feel for you Bethenny. Yours is a cautionary tale in many respects. The first being, what we model for our children through our own relationships with partners. Unfortunately, you didn’t have great role models in that way. But, also how those childhood experiences affect who we pick in relationships. I applaud you for intentionally doing better for your own daughter. May you find peace and happiness moving forward.
Thanks for watching!
On another note. She ( your baby girl) knows who you are. She loves you!
Jealousy is such a dark almost demonic thing to witness, especially when it’s towards you 😬 all I can think is “damn they’re miserable”
I love this divorce series, Bethenny and thank-you for sharing so much of your experience to help us avoid or get thru a divorce!! I would have had a nervous breakdown with all that you managed especially, on your own--none of us know what it was really like in your shoes. Some comments are tough but I think you did the best you could to survive all this--you are a wonderful mom with an amazing daughter who has a loving relationship you & with her dad & his side--you have a wonderful life now with Paul--and many other blessings, too many to count Big hugs and t-u for this series. 💗
❤️❤️❤️
I am so glad you got your daughter because if not now, she would have come straight to you as soon as she could legally leave him. That is what happened to my bf step son.
