Hillary made me wait for a month to speak or arrange to meet - fobbing me off while she was booking other kids in. She finally made contact and pretended she didn’t know how to arrange a young baby amongst the two toddlers she had booked in while fobbing me off. She has left be in a precarious situation now. But in hindsight if she can lie about something so simple I’d be worried about what else she would lie about. Just be honest from the beginning. We are all trying to survive out here. Thanks so much.

Thank you Chadia. In these very harsh circumstances to have such a person who has never met me try to shame me on this website.
I wish you all.the best and hope you find someone that is suitable for you and your daughter.
Good luck.
