Her being a mother of three but not having custody of any of her children tells me everything. If you meet a woman who has children but doesn't have custody over them you need to run. If a woman can't even love her kids enough to live with them and raise them she sure won't love you.
....Especially considering the way custody battles typically play out in the U.S.
For Laura to lose custody, the judge pretty much had to be convinced that they wouldn't survive until adulthood with Laura.
A mother would have to show an
astounding lack of responsibility to be refused custody for three separate custody battles. It's not like the judge could have made the wrong judgement call in deciding she was an unfit mother (not parent....there's a big difference as far as the courts are concerned). She was found unfit to care for her own biological children on three separate occasions.
There's more to that story than we're being told.
