Sorry if this sounds victim blaming but these children need every single person possible on their side. Men are too easy to piss off to the next life... responsibility is to keep your children safe if you live with them.or not..One bruise.listen to them.. a gut feeling. Anything..just look out for them and camp outside their window if that is what it takes..I urge anyone, absolutely anyone in children's lives to be so so vigilant especially when a new man is involved. Social services fuck up time after time, do whatever you need ..999 every single time if needed
