Continuing good thoughts

I found out at the funeral on Friday that my friends kids are going to their Father and there's nothing anyone can do to stop it.  Nothing was ever proved and he kept up with the visitation even though in the past he'd said he didn't want them.  It's a classic points score, he has them so he can say he's won.  We have a house address and e-mail so Jodie's going to try and keep in touch with her friend but a few of us feel like we've let 'T' down by not managing to keep her kids where she wanted them to stay.  At least 30 miles away is close enough to visit.
