The Destruction of Fatherhood.

incorrectness of offending single mothers, and the general mythologising

statement made by the author of Captain Corelli�s Mandolin. He sums up
his experiences with the Family court and the treatment he has received
when splitting from his ex wife and tormentor Cathy Gill. Another
typical female and other typical life destroying, vengeance seeking
shrews, that the majority of women become when being rejected or walk
out of their own accord....
