Class is irrelevant as Abuse is Abuse just as Violence is Violence. Domestic violence does not discriminate it can happen to any woman irrelevant of whether a woman is middle class or working class both women feel the very real pain of a punch. The problem is that violence between adults can and does cause harm to children. I have seen cases first hand were there has been violence between adults and very young children are hurt and injured as a result of being caught in the middle. Domestic violence is a very serious problem with many children being injured because they are caught in the cross fire of abuse. The danger of putting the mother’s needs first can result in the death of a child as we have seen with a recent very high profile case. Please let us not forget that children just like adults also have the right to be safe and free from harm.

Maybe a middle class woman taking her kid to McDonalds would be seen as giving a treat. We only saw them in McDonalds once, don't assume that's an everyday occurrence, just because they are working class. The food she bought from the shops looked very healthy. It is clear to see Kimberley goes through a great deal of emotional pain. But she has her priorities right - she loves her children and she takes good care of them. It seems she tries very hard not to pass that pain onto her children. Her children will always know that they come first with her, even if they didn't go to 'baby signing' or learn their colours before they started school! Maybe we should examine our ideas of what a 'good mother' is. I don’t know why people think Kimberley is a bad mother.

I notice you have posted a similar tirade against Daisy Asquith on another website (in fact you've copied and pasted whole sections of the rant here) seemingly in a concerted effort to destroy her reputation. I don't know her, I've got no particular reason to defend her, but your comments just seem extreme! Jill Parkinson, why so much spite?!

Naturally we have had different experiences due to our work. In fact last week, I advocated on behalf of a woman suffering domestic violence. Housing allocated her a house in the borough of her choice because I advocated for her. This what I and my very dedicated and talented colleagues do. I work in partnership with a professional network including health visitors, social workers, GP's etc. Although, I am a DV advocate at times I need to refer children to Children's Services if I am worried about a child's safety this is in line with the agency's policy. Even counsellors have a duty to refer if there is a concern for a child's safety. Every organisation working with children have a duty to protect and care. I think all professionals working with children are doing a very important and difficult job. Jane I thank you for your comment. Naturally we have had different experiences due to our work.

Her 'biography' is very sparse on details and only starts 'at age 19 Daisy worked as a receptionist at Windfall films'. Could this be because Miss Asquith is very, very well connected and can count Prime Ministers, Royalty, Earls, Baronesses, politicos and film directors amongst her family members? Her faux street-talk voice and herso-called ability to get down & dirty with the plebs is a sham. She is everything that is detestable about the liberal-elite, particularly media-types. They feed off the dysfunctional and inadequate, usually lower-classes, yet never address the problems. Of course, Kimberley had a bad start, so do many, many others but Asquith by excusing Kimberley's behaviour, ignores the plight of an abused two year old. Standing by, while a child's marks & briuses were casually dismissed as him being 'clumsy', watching while he was shouted and sworn at, fed junk food. This child was a witness to his father's violence and then his mother's, when she attacked her new partner! The social services, in this instance were right to have put the child on the 'At Risk' register and he was probably only removed due to the obvious publiicity (and Miss Asquith's connections?). Daisy Asquith is a fraud and while she sits back taking the plaudits and the cash, she has no answers to the endless cycle of child abuse and damage. Parasite.
