    Absolutely. It shouldnt be tolerated full stop. WW2 or not.

    Different times though...not easy to leave when there was no support. Where would she go? How would she finance it? Besides the laws then allowed men to beat wives and kids, she would probably have been dragged back to him. Deffo would have been zero garda protection.

    my open lettter to liveline listeners..

    dear live line listeners, i know how terrible your addiction to live line is.
    you wore shorts when you were younger.
    and ate ice cream when you went to the zoo,
    your mums and dads listened to liveline too,
    you hadnt really got a chance.

    if you are listening now,like i know you are,
    try to change channel,
    even just for a second,
    you ate easter eggs at easter

    I feel your pain ,
    if i could ring the police about it i would,
    but its not illegal to listen,

    you are not alone,



    thanks love suzie 4

    Garda action in those times would be to deliver the children to an industrial school where even more and worse abuse was perpetrated on them

    Its almost inevitable that going home to that man was the worst place she could have gone.

    What choice could she make that would have been worse?

    But your missing the point, where would she go? There were no refuges back then, you went back to your family you got a lecture about "you made your bed". She would have been totally helpless.

    Was there Garda in 1940s Liverpool?

    This is a very white and black way of thinking. Its 1940s Britain, there are no social workers, women refuges, NGOs like today. Giving the wife a few slaps was seen as the social norm by many.

    that woman shouldnt have been let on air,obviously needs counciling.

    Technically, we had 2!

    We had the Feb Funny Friday in March as Joe didn't understand the calendar; and then we had Sil Fox's Day of National Lampoonery and Commemoration of the 79th year of exiting his Monther's Vagina Lahv Lahn Extravaganza Tribute Extraordinaire!
