She married, had a child and divorced while in her twenties. Then she had two children out of wedlock. As she was too proud to ask for support, Lorraines little family was quite poor. She hastily entered into a marriage, looking for a father and financial security for her children. It turned out to be an extremely abusive relationship. It also produced her fourth child. Ms. Hamiltons parents died as she was in the midst of divorce. Her life went from difficult to horrific. Her intelligence and upbringing insisted that she must raise her children with certain values and advantages. Her circumstances made that impossible. Prone to depression and anxiety, Lorraine was a breakdown waiting to happen. Then a vendetta against her family by a woman she met spiraled into a nightmare. As events unfolded and others got involved, the family was almost destroyed. Authorities either ignored pleas for help or intervened in inappropriate and even illegal ways. This is the autobiographical saga of a family that a community tried to destroy.Hawkins, Ruth is the author of 'Portrait of Tears' with ISBN 9781591299394 and ISBN 159129939X.
