My daughter has been in a womens refuge 6 weeks now with my 3 grandsons.She is 3 hours drive away although we cant go there and she cant come here for fear of being followed.I was so upset when the police took her.She has sent me so many photos of all her new friends and places they have been to.Everyone is laughing and it looks like they are actually enjoying it.But behind every smile you just know why they are there with there children.So sad Annie

It is sad Annie, but how nice that they feel able to feel safe and laugh.

I hope that in time the whole situation can be safely and happily resolved, so that you can all meet up again.

Grannie I can remember your 1st thread on this when it happened.
It was hard on you then and it must be harder now. but please remember that she is safe.

I'm glad you get photo's with smiles, and yes you can't forget why they are there

This must be horrible for you.

I can't imagine what it must be like.

I suppose you have to take comfort in the fact that your daughter and her family are safe, but how you deal with this I don't know.

I can't imagine my daughter being in trouble and me not being able to get to her.

What else can I say, except that my heart goes out to you and to her.

I know my daughter and grandsons are safe.I know all these other women and children are safe.But us as parents just want our family. Annie

It won't be forever Annie. You'll be able to hug them all once your daughter's troubles are solved.

Thank Heavens for Womens Refuges .I am sorry to hear your daughter and her children have had to take these drastic measures,but they will be safe now ,which is the main thing.The fact there are others in the same situation ,will help her not feel alone.I can't imagine how I would be if it was my daughter.It must be so hard for you.I hope she won't be there for too much longer .xx

I know women who should have taken advantage of one of these places. Grannie, you can only take heart in the fact that she is able to communicate with you by post. You will see her as son as it is safe. Take care.

annie i also remember you first thread, but remember they are safe now and this should give you peace of mind. one day sometime soon when things have been resolved, i am sure you will be reunited with your family.

sending you positive thoughts and hugs

Hi Annie,

I can understand your sadness and frustration that you can't visit your daughter and grandchildren but at least you are seeing pics of them so you know life is as good as it can be for them and they aren't just stuck in a room with no company or interest going on. Try and stay positive and maybe write a little diary of things that happen with you and the family and send it each week via email so they can feel they are part of things still. I expect the children will be getting nervous but excited about going to a new school so will have lots to tell you about later on and maybe you can meet up at some stage later on.

Good luck to them, as others say, at least they are well and safe.
