Re: Separated and going on holiday?

Retrouvaile have saved so many couples- even who were pretty sure there the experience would only confirm them that their marriage really was not in the category of a potential future.  I have not been there (yet!) but just wanted to throw that in the mix in case helpful.  Good luck with whatever de...

Re: Devastated by husband's announcement

I love BalhamDaddy's comment.  I have heard great things about "Retrouvaile" marriage help programme - even for couples who thought they stood no chance of staying together.  Life is long and a marriage is worth saving.  I know he has turned down counselling but maybe suggest to try this i...

Re: Neurodiverse Teenage Girls

Facebook SEN fun London is worth a look.  Also has links to other groups which may be more appropriate for early teens like your girl.  I too have a child diagnosed with autism.

Re: Devastated by husband's announcement

I know he has declined counselling.  But if there is any chance then I hear wonderful things about these events even in the most "hopeless" of cases.

Only glad of "most" comments?  Which one displeases?  This comment is itself judging one person's comment choice to be "judging".  To authentically believe in choice our choices logically are those that respect the choices of others: to engage in discussion,  to be free of negati...

Re: I want a third but husband isn’t sure

I would suggest that you start by using natural fertility rather than so called contraceptives.   It's more favourable to thinking about what conjugal intimacy really means.  Contraceptives make infertility the norm.  Natural fertility makes fertility the norm and a monthly decision to plan to opt o...

Re: What you should say to somebody who has miscarried – and what you shouldn’t

I found much kindness but also several medical professionals remarkably brusque when I attended for follow up appointments after miscarriages. At one post-miscarriage examination I found myself placed directly facing a folder labelled T.O.P ( "Termination of Pregnancy") It really got me th...

Re: Catholic primary consults on proposed change to admissions arrangements

Cannot comment specifically on this school but I do believe Catholic churches schools need to stop admitting people who "pretend" Catholicism in order to effectively create a segregated privileged school system. Surges in religious attendance in such numbers only when school admissions cri...
