This community has been a great support and wonderful friendly place for me and I want to share what has happened to me this week with you all so you know why I am going away for a period of time.

Yesterday I was out'ed to my ex-husband by someone who wishes to remain anonymous and will not even say who they are. My ex who knew nothing of my business has now given me 24 hours to remove all of our sites and related blogs from the internet or will go to child protective services and try to take my precious child from me. I cannot allow that to happen. So I have made the very difficult decision of removing our blogs and our site from the internet for a period of time until I can obtain counsel and decide my course and what is best for my child.

I know I am not the first person who has had this happen in the community and nor will I be the last. It makes me sick and I am reeling with hurt, anger, outrage, and grief. We are all regular people people and this fetish does not make us un-fit parents or sickos, but that is the perception of many.

I have never done anything to endanger my child, but I am being threatened in no uncertain terms because that is the perception.

Thank you all for all the wonderful support and kindness you have given to me over the past year! I want you to know how much I appreciate it.

Faithfully yours-
Veronica

WOW, I am sorry to hear this for you two. I hope everything works out for you, and you are back on-line providing a service I know a lot out there use. And more important that you no longer have the fear for your children in this regards.

Sorry to hear about your troubles,there are some nasty people about aren't there. Hope to hear from you soon when this terrible mess is sorted out.

How cruel! And how cowardly for someone to do such a thing!

This is one of my biggest fears, having children myself. It is the main reason why I do not allow my face to be shown in pictures of myself in kink-related activities.

I wish you the best, Veronica. As a parent, who is fiercely protective of my own children's well-being, can empathize and back you up in the assertion that being kinky and a bit of an exhibitionist in no way makes one a bad parent. But we must do what we need to do to protect them at pretty much all costs.

Veronica,

I met you and Dr. D at Texas All State this year and I found you both to be marvelous folks. I am so sorry that some cowardly moron had to put you through this....the community is with you and you will be in thought until this idiocy gets resolved.

Warmest regards,

Jim

The same thing happened to me not to long ago. Luckily it turned out ok and my ex actually took it better than I expected. I was so scared and knew it could have been a really bad situation. Like you I'll do whatever it takes for my children even if it meant leaving the lifestyle. I hope and pray that everything works out for you and your little one. Using our precious children against us is the absolute most piss poor trick in the book.

That is terrible Veronica! Good luck on your efforts. Hope you come back after you get your mess squared away.

You know, some people really suck.

Veronica, as you can see, you have tons of support. Hang in there, do whatever you need to do, and we'll all be here waiting. I hope you find some good counsel who will work with you and help you solve this mess. You are devoted to your child and everyone who knows you, knows that. -- Erica

That's awful, Veronica. There's no excuse for your ex's actions. It's mean-spirited, vindictive, and says much more about him than it does about you. I know that this is a terrible blow on several different fronts and has no easy resolution. You have my thoughts with you as you and D navigate this difficult path.

Thank you all so very much for the very kind and supportive comments. The past three days have literally been hell for me. I continue to vascillate between crying and anger. Thanks to you 007, I have a contact number now for a licensed mediator here who may be able to help me. Unfortunately none of the lawyers they have are in my state. But thank you for the resource because it may help.

If anyone knows a lawyer able to practice in Colorado who works in family law or the area of civil rights, please let me know.

I am overwhelmed by the support I have gotten and I want you to know how much it means to me right now when I feel I have no one I can talk to except Dr. D who has his own set of feelings about the whole mess.
