2010-02-21 [Rice]: Have you read his brothers book as well. The child they for some reason left with the murderous mother. Child Support at its finest.
Also yeah about the Dad..bullshit he would have done nothing.

2010-02-21 [Duke Devlin]: Haven't read any others. :O What's his brother's book called? They really wouldn't have left the children with the mother after the court case (or before, for that matter. All children would have been taken into protective custody the moment the words 'child abuse' were mentioned oO), but then it might tell of that in one of his other two books on the matter. Dunno yet. :O
You'd have to be the world's worst father to do absolutely nothing, and then just move out and leave the kid. =/

2010-02-21 [Rice]: I have no clue, never finished it because it was basically the same thing. 8/ Just now he's making it look like he was the one being abused or something, when clearly in the first book he was some twatish brat how always got the kid into trouble.
But yeah, plus he was a fire fighter, by nature wanting to help people.
But I detest biographies about abuse because in most cases its for attention (IE celebrities suddenly revealing they were abused for media coverage). But yeah, there are the rare few I enjoy reading and really get into and feel 'my god this actually happened'. Like Black Bird and Still Waters. Many people in that book I want to hurt.

2010-02-21 [Duke Devlin]: Wow, how gay. I'm not sure which brother it was, since he had four, but all of them were particularly nasty towards him in this, except his very youngest. =/ Oh well, people tend to try to cash in on other's stories if they can - especially if it's a family member.
AHGHGHGGHHHHH Fucking Katie Price and her 'I was raped!' story last year. That one really pisses me off. She's such a cunt. :)
I've never read those, but by the sounds of it, they would be worth reading. :O Will do. :P

2010-02-21 [Rice]: YES! Read them, they follow from each other, same girl. But they are really good.

And YES XD..my god...it's like every single celeb biography. 'I WAS RAPED AS A CHILD'....'I WAS BEATAN'. It's just, URAGH, it annoys me because I feel it takes something away from people who have really been abused, people who are suffering in silence watching as their troubles are twisted by some ugly bitch to make people feel sorry for her.

2010-02-21 [Duke Devlin]: I'll probably read them over Easter then. :) I find it interesting to read one's that follow on from eachother.
It is disgusting that many celebrities suddenly pull such stories from their little bag of tricks. All it is is more publicity to them, while elsewhere there are people who have developed into quiet, nervous people, afraid of the slightest thing - it's absolutely sickening. God I hate Katie Price.

2010-02-21 [Rice]: Yeah. Media Attention whores annoy me so much. Its like Lissa. D8< *breathes fire*

2010-02-21 [windowframe]: Bout time.

2010-02-22 [▲.]: That book was so sad. :/

2010-02-22 [Rice]: Gah!. >.> But now I know some of it may have been made up, I start to wonder which parts are real. So 8/ Kinda ruined it for me.

2010-02-22 [▲.]: Ah, well it's "based" on a true story. I still found it a sad book, regardless of whether or not it was real. :/

2010-02-22 [Rice]: I don't really read sad books. o_o They bore me and get sooooo depressing. I don't like thinking about kids being tortured and stuff.
So I opt for serial killer books 8D where adults get tortured and stuff.

2010-02-22 [▲.]: I kind of just read whatever comes my way. I have yet to read a serial killer book that wasn't Silence of the Lambs.

2010-02-22 [Rice]: *bursts into flames* WHAT OMG D8<
That is just not acceptable.

2010-02-22 [▲.]: :<

2010-02-23 [Duke Devlin]: Psht. Shh you, Silvie. XP I'm reading like a mega-bitch now. XDDD
I read whatever, also, ABCiCi... You have a bizarre username btw... :D

2010-02-23 [Duke Devlin]: Also, IT IS LIKE LISSA! D:< *rage*

2010-02-23 [Rice]: *RAGE RAGE*

2010-02-23 [Duke Devlin]: *Mega Rage*

2010-02-23 [Rice]: *Ultimate rage formation*

2010-02-23 [Duke Devlin]: XD ... Do we get to form a RAGE SPIRIT BOMB!?
