The Unspoken Abuse

When Edward met Angie, she seemed like a nice girl and a doting mother. Angie was going through a nasty divorce and Edward was happy to offer his support. Shortly they formed a special connection: I felt I could tell her anything. Before long, Angie and Edward moved in together with Angie’s little boy and life took a happy and calm path for the three of them. Until one evening when Angie put out her burning cigarette onto Edward’s wrist. This is the story of Edward Charles, a man who was physically and mentally abused by his wife for years. Forced to move out of his house with no access to see his daughter, Edward fought a long and hard battle with the Courts and the authorities to make them accept the truth: he was subjected to vicious domestic abuse. This book is the diary of this battle as well as the heart-breaking testimony of a father refused access to his daughter. Even though I haven’t seen Faith for over three years now, she is always in my heart and in my mind. Any parent will say that children should always come first. Yes, there are exceptions to this as you will read in this book; some parents go against the grain. Children are being used as weapons against fathers and mothers who love them very much. This book is dedicated to my beautiful daughter with a lot of love.
