So much has happened since my last entry on here I thought it was time for an update
2 years ago we were told to give up on our daughter and forget about her,social workers told us we would never see her again,police officers told us we wouldn't want to.Being a mum is never easy but maternal instincts are stronger than anything else in the world so giving up on flesh and blood would just never happen.
Today she is a happy confident young woman,she has passed her driving test and has her own car,she has the most amazing boyfriend who is warmly welcomed into our family home.
Whats more she has passed her GCSE's,A*s As and B....not bad considering we are still waiting for the much promissed strategy meeting and support mechanisms to get her education back on track.
To all you parents out there in a similar situation......never give up hope...never stop fighting
Girls caught up in this nightmare are victims,they need help to recover,they need love and support,they need their family around them.
If by chance a young lady called Molly is reading this please remember you are a victim,you have done nothing wrong,the men you are with are dangerous and manipulative,please contact either your family or the police.

I read your blog with tears in my eyes and I am so pleased that your daughter is home and on track. You sound like a fab mum :-)
I am awake tonight because I am writing a blog entry about a man called Lawrence who with his wife groomed me back in 1974 when I was 14, back then of course I didn't know what grooming was.
For me who such a self aware person I cannot comprehend how it happened, but that is my adult self considering it from my view point now.
My parents never knew and I never told. I have had a conversation with my mum about 8 years ago and kept the sordid stuff from her. She is hurt of course that she didn't protect me, how could she?
What kept me sane was hiding it away in some dark corner of my mind and saying to myself, well it was only sex, it happened and that's life and I do believe that, however the demons keep coming back!
So now at almost 50 I have decided its time to let them go.
Good luck and lots of love for you and your family, I hope that your daughter reconciles this sooner that I did.

So glad you have decided to evict the demons from your life!
I hope you can find inner peace at last.
