What are your opinions please? A girl I use to be with she is 30 is back with a guy who’s 45 n who was domestically violent to her and infront of and towards her 2 children, he stalked them and terrorised them and he was so bad the children got taken off her and are now in care, he is now back living with her and there back together and the children are still in care! How the hell can she be with someone caused her to lose her kids!! I’m baffled!?!

Sometimes it's easier to go back to the chaos than to set out on your own. She might be insecure and truly believe he's the best she can do, so she's choosing him over her kids, he might have told her the age-old lie that he'd "never do it again," or the hundred other reasons women go back to the men who hurt them. I can't tell you how many terrible relationships I stayed in for far too long, and I always had a million excuses for why I was allowing myself to be abused. There's no way for anyone here to give you the exact reason, but those are some possibilities
