I did not write the following for general publication but for my family, although the Rev. David Lewis, the Baptist Minister of the church I attended in Grimsby, did indicate in his letter to me after reading my correspondence with family and friends about my loss of faith that it would make a good book and help many. I feel it would help families of all faiths and denominations to understand their relationships and highlight some of the issues that cause families to split up. Youngsters very often leave home or marry unsuitable partners to get away from their parents which very often causes them to split up. This in turn causes complications with the children. In fact my husband and I were on the point of separating until he agreed finally to read the letters.
