We can all play the "he says, she says" game here. No matter why or who left who, the point remains children are homeless and someone did something wonderful for them. Hence: they no longer have to live with an abusive alcoholic (if true), they will now have their OWN roof over their head. It would seem to me that this woman would want to live in his nice home as opposed to a 500 sq. ft. home. The fact that she is homeless with children has to tell me her home life with this guy had to be pretty bad. No one in their right mind would choose to be in her situation. I think her actions speak much louder than any words any of us can type in here. We should all be happy for them.

Funny Karelyn - there was never any issues of abuse in his first marriage of 17 years and his children of that marriage - remember the one he was in when you met him??
How is anyone suppose to believe the pictures you have of your daughter are proof of what HE did?? Seems there are accusations against you for violence and evidence of that as well.
You felt it was alright for you to take off to meet an interenet fling (the weekend your husband came home from deployment) and you left the kids with him then - in fact not even letting him know you were leaving the state. You can't have it both ways.
You keep crying HE is so abusive but who do the authorities believe?? Maybe you should just GROW UP and face the facts - think of your children for a change and have an amicable divorce and quit stahling things with your lies and manipulations.

Been following what started out as a positive day for a mother and her two kids and what feels more like a rant and rave from Craig’s List, with a very obvious "cast of characters" that probably are just one or two people in all reality. Where to start?
"Funny Karelyn - there was never any issues of abuse in his first marriage of 17 years and his children of that marriage - remember the one he was in when you met him??"
What does a prior 17 year marriage and divorce have anything to do with this situation? You can speak in behalf of the ex-wife? Abuse of any kind would have to have existed prior to or it can't be true? That sure makes sense.
You seem to have some very inside information as to what exactly goes on in the lives of these two people? Why would that be if I may ask? You certainly seem to come across as someone who thinks they may “be in the know” and by all means not afraid to say so. You do like to “give details” even if they have absolutely no relevance.
You state:
"You keep crying HE is so abusive but who do the authorities believe??"
You also appear to answer for the Columbus Police Department and can be certain who and what they believe in. I must admit, you have a pretty powerful gift. What actually makes you think you can make a representation such as that?
And my favorite quote of the day”
” Maybe you should just GROW UP and face the facts - think of your children for a change and have an amicable divorce and quit stahling things with your lies and manipulations”
Stahling? That must be a KY thing and love those double question marks. Why would the person who needs the support for her kids be the one slowing down the court process? What possible gain would that bring? But since you are so “in the know” of things, you would be familiar with who is taking their time seeing that the divorce gets finalized and perhaps financial support of his children will actually need to start.
I am sure you will have the answer to all of these questions and more. Perhaps, whoever is writing from KY, will take a break from the forum and spare us all the venom, but we all know better
