It is no excuse. As said by the other member and myself once you give birth to a child you enter a duty of care towards that child.Maybe I'm not explaining it well. The other poster said something along the lines of;
'being in a domestically abusive relationship is no excuse, plenty of women are in domestically abusive relationships and manage to protect their children'.
And yes, this may well be the case. But it wasn't the case in this case, therefore that argument is invalid. The facts of the case are the facts, regardless of what 'plenty' of other people manage to do, or not.
