I Feel Bad for claire as a women ..no women should go through what claire is going. 

Gus is too cute.

Author's Response:

Gus is a happy little guy.  Addiction leads people to make bad decisions.  Unfortunately Claire has made a bunch of bad decisions.  Bill

I considered to stop the reading of this story and wait till it´s finished - every tin´me I read a new chapter the waiting for the next twist of this wonderful story is so hurtful.....But I can´t resist reading the newest chapter when it pops up.....Your writing is too good to resist! Do you know that?

Though I am terribly busy at work, I never fail reading the latest chapter! It´s your fault!! ;))))

My remarks on the story: Calire´s new job will be of no good, no way to the better in sight - it´s so sad to watch. I´m also hopeless for our friend Mikey, I wish Ben could have some helpful influence.

I wonder what the future will bring to Gus and his fathers, will he stay with them because the loft will be overcrowded, Linds so unhappy?

I like the road the nephews take, can´t wait till you give us to read the talk with the uncles about permanent custody. I see Justin more emotional involved with them and Brian more in some kind of empathy (shitty circumstances, unable mother etc), but is this enough for permanent life...? It´s much more better than what they had  with Claire!

I am happy you gave the young boys playing time in the creek - this so important und get dirty is a must for youngsters! In US-fanfiction I wonder always the amount of time children spend watching dvds and the families don´t go on trips on sundays......

I hope you know by now how much I like your story, go on and stay inspired!

Sorry I make you wait so long between updates, I will try and do better.  Right at this moment I don't have an ending in mind for the story, just lots of ideas for future chapters.  You may have a long wait for the story to be complete!  You are very kind about my writing, I don't think I deserve such praise.  I think you are correct about Claire's career, no hope of a good future there.  Mikey is quite single minded and has trouble seeing any viewpoint but his own.  My boyhood summers were spent mostly getting very dirty playing around a creek and often being told by my mother to jump in our pool to get the worst of the dirt off me so I agree that is something that boys should be doing.

Your reviews are always so kind and interesting and I appreciate them very much.  Thanks you for being usch a loyal reader.  Bill

Oh, dear.  Looks like the dentist office may have problems with their new employee.  What was Joanie thinking of sending a drug addict to ask for work in a dentist office.  This just might be the nail in their coffin in their efforts to get the boys back. hahahah!  Even Ben sees that Micheal is being unfair in expecting Brian to bail out the girls.  When will he have enough of Mikey's double standards when it comes to Brian.  Not to mention his lack of respect for Justin.  At least John and Peter will go to a good school, though I'm beginning to wonder if Washington Academy who care only for money is the best place.

Author's Response:

Thanks my friend, as always for your review.  I think Joanie is in a bit of denial about Claire's drug problems.  I don't think we should judge the whole school by just one uppity dean of admissions.  I expect BK will bring Mr Dennison down to earth.  Really happy you are still reading and enjoying the story.  Bill

I was pleased to see a new chapter!

It doesn't look good for Clair getting her act together. Hanging out with druggies who want to know if your new boss has anything to steal doesn't a successful worker make.

I liked that you had the boys play in the mud, there is not enough of that in so cal.

Author's Response:

Sorry it was so long between updates.  I don't see Claire's career as a receptionist to be a long term thing. I don't think kids play enough in the mud anywhere.  I spent most of my childhood summers playing near a creek and getting very dirty.  Happy you are still enjoying the story.  Thanks for the review.  Bill

Great chapter as always my friend :) I just have two little itsy bitsy problems...the first one being the Dean of admissions. The bastard has his nose so high in the air that he can't even smell his own mouthwash. My second problem is the fact that Claire is planning to take advantage of her job opportunity only to potentially satisfy her druggie boyfriend's filthy habit.

Author's Response:

I think the first time Brian has to deal with Dean Dennison he will get an attitude adjustment.  Claire just loves too much, she does whatever she can to help her man (of the moment).  Thanks for the review, I'm happy you are still enjoying the story.  Bill
