You would think every woman’s answer to this question would be a straight up no, while for one woman that wasn’t the case.

Unhappy in her marriage and in life a wife and mother decided to leave her husband and children behind she she can begin a new life with her boyfriend. At first she promised her children she would visit often but the just a few weeks later she couldn’t afford the train fair back and now she is stuck miles away with her children constantly asking when will the see their mother.

The woman admitted she misses her children constantly, and yet she still refuses to return home because she doesn’t want to leave her partner.

As much as I try not to judge people I will never understand how a mother could just abandoned her children like that, surely the happiness and wellbeing of our children comes before our own.

My heart breaks for these children who have lost their mother through no fault of their own. I think the woman is very selfish. I read this story in a magazine months ago and felt the need to write about it. It made me very angry and I could never get the story out of my head.
