to be pleased that, today, DD3 called the Idiot an ar****le!

That's DH's for the Idiot! Makes me

Wish I'd thought of that one, janerowena.

jane I have heard that one before and there are a couple if people I'd use it for !

I don't swear, but Ex did quite often. I know your daughter is getting better because once when he rang to shout at me I called him a word* I had just made up, it came out involuntarily as hers probably did. I felt so much better afterwards.

F***features, if anyone is interested! Can't see it catching on...

Thank you all!

The language didn't thrill me but I've mentally called him much worse, so i can't complain!

Sounds good as she manages each small step she will get stronger. best wishes

Glad to hear she's making progress kitty

I remember that feeling, she will soon be back to her proper self. It takes a while to get your self-respect back after years of being brow-beaten.

Go kitty's DD. The worm has turned and I hope she now goes on from strength to strength.

That's brilliant. It may not sound much to people who haven't been bullied and controlled but it's a huge step and a major victory for her
