[Margaret Pilkington]

'We' are a society that is tainted by poor parenting.....by turning a blind eye to things that should be sorted.
Children are our future Flashy.......and it is obvious from your response that you are a good and caring mother, that makes you capable of spotting what makes a poor mother, an 'unable' mother......a mother who cannot fulfil her obligations to her children......and one who is likely (without some kind of intervention) to self destruct.

It is her fault that she is in the kind of predicament she is in....she has engineered her fate by not being capable of recognising that she is making the same mistakes over and over.
And in her book......I take it that she wrote it, of course she is going to say that her children know nothing of what is going on....it is hardly something she is likely to admit to is it?
She is a needy person who has turned to the wrong people for support and help...badly advised and thrown to the wolves that make up the media.
