My heart goes out to this Lady ❤ i was 9 yrs old when i packed my bags and waited on the side of a road for bus that never came to escape a violent home. Had my beautiful grandparents not stepped in and saved me, i would've been dead. When children say they dont want to be somwhere out of fear, ppl need to listen.
Poor poor lady. I lost my daughter just over two years ago. I’m still devastated and feel lost without my beautiful girl. I accept I will always feel like this until we meet, when I go home too. The circumstances of those poor children’s passing are just simply horrific. This woman is inspirational. I totally agree the children should choose who they see and not see. I will be signing the petition. All children should have a voice. Well done lady, what a wonderful way to honour your two beautiful boys who will FOREVER be in your heart and mind. Sending you healing, love and hugs xxxxx❤️💞❤️
Sorry for your loss also. My fiancé lost a son 12yrs ago. Watching him fall to the ground and run into the woods to wanna kill himself was horrible. Thank God he had 2 sons still here who went and talked him back. I watch the sadness on a daily
I watched the documentary on what happened to Claire and her children 😔. I don’t know where she gets her strength from but I always keep her in my prayers.
The judge should have to be held responsible for their horrendous decision. My heart hurts for this poor lady. Can I sign the petition even if I live in Canada?
That judge should be jailed. Mom would know better than anyone that her boys were not safe with their Dad, and they vehemently said they didn’t want to see him. What gives the judge the right to ignore that? Is he stating that the father had parental rights? Sorry to burst your bubble, judge, but that bastard gave up his “rights” the moment he laid hands on those sweet boys and their Mom. My God, they suffered for years, finally escape and you threw them into the lion’s den. How do you sleep?
It makes me so angry and 9 and 12 year old children know what they want. I have heard other stories too where the child has begged to not have to see their parent that they are scared but the judges have not listened and forced the child to be with the abuser (saying the other parent is lying and manipulating) and the child have been murdered. Cruelty to force a child who doesn't want to see a parent. When will it change.
OMG, this is just horrendous what this woman has had to suffer and go through. I am crying as I read this. Innocent lives lost. Mother totally destroyed and devastated. 🙏🙏❤️❤️
Claire, my heart feels your pain. My daughter with Down syndrome was brutally attacked, raped and murdered over a two hour period by a stranger when she'd gone out for a walk. To lose both your children and the judge not to have taken you serious. Thankyou for sharing the beautiful legacy of your boys, and Jack's bravery to help his brother. What amazing boys. Our kids legacy of how they lived and drive for change to systems ensures their legacy continues and helps others. You are a strong, brave lady. Loving Lena with faith f27 ✏️ 💖 ✝️ 🌈
So sorry this happened to you and your daughter, I can't imagine anything worse than this happening to a parent. And people with down syndrome are so innocent too how can anyone harm them, I just don't understand how some people become so evil, how can a human being have zero empathy.
Who is the judge ? Name and shame him !!! That judge has blood on his hands... a family social worker should have been brought in to talk to the boys and access the situation.. great, you are speaking up to others, so they choose to leave when abuse occurs rather than stick around and endure it.. sticking around is the worst possible thing for the children.. I am so sorry for the loss of your precious boys
I firmly believe in children having a say... And not forced to go.... When they are older and can see the truth, then they can decide for themselves....
Poor woman, her words saying she just exists, I feel for her soo much , this is sooo tragic, what a monster her ex husband he is! Hope the law she is trying to win , wins.
I am sincerely sorry for the loss of your gorgeous sons, Jack and Paul. I hope you succeed in your Child First campaign. Wishing you peace in this life. 🫂💙🩵💯
She is a mother. First That her spirit is strength for others. My life has been 😢 Saying this, this mother has been to hell and back. Her voice of change needs to be heard and supported 🙏
My heart broke listening to this lady. I tried to sign the petition but when I put in my Eir code it said it wasn't a right one. I'm in Ireland so I think it's only for the English people. Pity as I would have loved to have signed it ❤
So Tragic. My Ex Husband Was Looking At CP and SAd Our Children For 8 Months. He Went To Prison In Late 2022. I’m Blessed To Have My Daughters Today. If Different Choices We’re Made What Happened To This Lady, Losing Her Kids This Way, Could have Happened To Me. Rest In Peace ✌🏻 Jack & Paul. I Pray 🙏🏻 That Lord You Will Help This Lady Through The Grieving Process and Lord Don’t Let Her Get Stuck In The Grieving Process. I also pray 🙏🏻 that the Child 1st Campaign Goes Through
My heart is broken for you. I am so sorry for your loss. Keep up that crusade to prevent other kids from having to go through the same. Too many courts rule in favour of contact even when children say they don't want it. Absolutely disgraceful parents that weaponise children in this way. Take care xx
Prayers for you dear sister. My heart aches for you. I too was a victim of domestic violence and I will never understand The decisions made by people who obviously don't know or don't care how devastating those rulings are. GOD SPEED. Jesus holds your boys close.
Dear claire one day as you say ,you'll meet your boys again ,in the meanwhile they're watching over you with all the immense love they feel for you. No one can take away that love .they're so much loved and you are so much loved.
There aren't big enough words, not enough good adjectives for this. My mama heart is broken for Claire and I hope she is beyond successful in what she's set out to do. I tried to sign but it said not a valid postal code, so I'm unsure if this is only open to the UK to sign? Love, hugs & God Bless you 💕💕
Bless your heart dear lady I’m so very sorry for the agony your going through heartbreaking I pray you get the law changed And get some peace in your heart xxxxxx🙏
Abusers are all the same; they always put the blame on the victims using the same excuse: 'look at what you made me do'. Too many women have heard these exact words over & over again. What a sad state of affairs.
Another story of where children are not listened to and then get murdered. If a child is scared and doesn't want to see a parent that should be it, makes me so mad. A 12 year old knows what they want, cruelty to force him to be with an abusive parent.
I fought my ex tooth and nail. Our daughter would cry and said her dad said he would keep her for good. He would play these emotional mind games. After 6 to 7 years of trying to work with ex on visitation, I shut it completely off. At one point the court ordered supervised visits for him. It cost him $50 each visit. That was the first and last visit he made because he didn't want to pay. I prayed and moved. He never found us. He stopped the child support and the healthcare. That was great. It gave me leverage. Leave us alone, I'll never ask for either as I said to myself. I've always worked and paid my own bills. Due to God's grace, I was able to have healthcare thru my job. Own a home. Was never on welfare. I would go after advancements to make more money. Never told my daughter anything bad about her dad. When she grew up she figured it out herself. As her dad has gotten older he's apologized to her. But she deals with him when she wants. She's 26 now.
Darling, your bravery and strength is incredible. You poor, poor woman. What a hectic and tragic story. Please tell me that dreadful man is in jail for life? I certainly hope so. I hope you carry on with your incredible mission to put an end to this cruelty inflicted by some poor examples of men, not worthy of a woman like you! 😢😢😢
This woman has more courage than she realizes to continue fighting to change laws that let children down. This is one of the saddest stories I have ever heard.
Wow CLAIRE THROSSLE YOU ARE A VERY STRONG WOMAN YOU'RE HELPING AND HAVE HELPED MANY VICTIMS BY TELLING YOUR STORY I'M KEEPING YOU AND YOUR FAMILY IN MY PRAYERS
When she said they were keeping her son alive so she could say goodbye, I audibly gasped. This is so sad. The ex is evil. I hope, though, that she realizes that her children would want her to live and enjoy life. Not just exist.
I would have written letter the that actual judge. You could fill in what I would write. I don't have children. But my heart goes out to you like no other. Much love and light 💐🌻
That JUDGE NEEDS TO BE IN PRISON. HER BEAUTIFUL SONS TOLD THE FAMILY SERVICE AND JUDGE THEY DIDN'T WANT TO SEE HIM THE ABUSE AND DANGER WAS THERE THE JUDGES NEED TO PAY VERY CLOSE ATTENTION TO WHAT CHILDREN SAY AND ACTUALLY LISTEN WHEN THEY SPEAK AGAIN PRISON TIME FOR THE JUDGE
I was falsely accused of parental alienation. They will NEVER listen to the children. All the men need to do is mention parental alienation and whatever your kids say or do it’s not believed. I’m sorry to say but they will never believe the children. When they realised they were wrong they covered it up and kind of just dropped the case, but there was no justice for my child - the one they damaged.
