I understand your explanation for why the parents acted and reacted the way they did, and I don't hold Kyle or Megan in any less esteem for loving and forgiving them, but I have little empathy or respect for them. I keep coming back to all the people that went through the adoption process the right way and to them letting the fictional politician get away with molesting young girls. There is honest ignorance and there is willful, self-serving ignorance. I believe Kyle's parents fall into the latter category. I also wanted to add that I am loving this story. A romance that feels realistic and steamy, a good mystery, cute dogs, and a story that invites debate and interaction between it's readers! You hit a home run!

While I'm no longer ready to have the parents hauled to jail, I still think they got off easy. They were so desperate for children (and selfishly refused to wait it out like hundreds of thousands of other hopeful adopters of babies, or adopt older children) that they overlooked obvious warning signs of illegality. They agreed to stay quiet and lie to their families to get their babies. Were they really ok with a politician getting away with (and presumably still) molesting young girls? These parents aren't evil, they loved and still love Kyle and Megan. But these are the type of people that allowed that monster to operate for years. I think there is a saying something to the effect of "all it takes to allow evil to flourish is good people looking the other way."

I loved this series and the daily morning commentary. Tomorrow will seem a little empty. Working from the bottom seems to be a safer way to make changes that will last. These boys have a lot of knowledge and experience in their young brains. I wonder what I would do in their situation?
-
I wonder what went wrong. It didn't seem like they changed anything big enough to cause this. I can't believe tomorrow's chapter is the end! I'm going to miss this.

I'm certainly not an expert, but I have watched an awful lot of crime shows on tv. If a death occurs in the committing of a crime (like kidnapping, rape, and false imprisonment), the offender can be charged with homicide, even without a body. If she bled to death because of the problematic delivery, that would still be homicide (murder would be hard to prove). Even if he didn't get that many more years, it would almost certainly keep him in prison for a lot longer.

I was half excited the last 2 chapters would be posted this morning and half dreading the end. Do we know if there are any other dkstories books to be re-released?

Chapter 23 Cakes and caring
CincyKris commented on Timothy M.'s story chapter in Chapter 23 Cakes and caring
I just finished binge reading this wonderful story. Thank you for what you have written and I look forward to reading more when you feel ready to post. I'm going to read some more of your stories, especially about the angel & imp and a sexy guardian angel. -
Now that you mention it, Essell is very similar to a British colonialist explorer or adventurer. He has good intentions but a bit of the arrogance that justified their "discoveries" of things that existed for millennia. Hopefully his genetic modifications and superior technology will prevent the equivalent of smallpox blankets.
-
Wow, that is pretty good security. I hope that Essell gets over his anger, for his and Garjah's sakes. I also hope that Garjah tries to be more sympathetic towards Essell's unique(?) circumstances. I definitely want to see this couple succeed.

I was surprised the jamming was still in place, but happy they didn't have to kill Shevardnardze. We were never given the details regarding whether he approached the mad scientist to start the project, or the scientist approached Shevardnardze for funding. Hopefully the latter, so we don't have to worry about Shevardnardze searching Mad Scientists Are Us for a time machine. I'm intrigued by Davey and Brian's machinations inside Russia. It is reminiscent of Davey's small "nudges" in the second to last timeline that resulted in David Sr. becoming president.

This is a funny, fast-paced, romantic story. Matt and Seamus will delight, excite, and frustrate you! Aidan is one of the best kid characters I've ever read.

We can't forget the real reason these two are here. Shevardnardze has to be eliminated.
-
I know they paid $100,000 for 2 kids, lied to everyone in their lives, and didn't bother to tell their kids they were adopted until they got caught by the DNA test. I don't think they knew the horrors their money was supporting, but there was no way they thought this was a normal adoption.

Dr. Spencer Reid is one of my favorite characters of all time. I've wanted to try Death Wish for a while, but I'm too cheap to pay that much! I also scented a little lust in the air. I'm thinking the alpha might be into nerds. Camping might be a good way to lay low from humans, but Cyn is a lot more comfortable and confident in the woods than in a city. The bad guys will smell like the skunks that they are!

Holy crap!!! I tried to put myself in Kyle's place as I was reading this. I couldn't even begin to put myself in Kim's place! First I'm thinking "how is Megan going to react to this", then "I can't believe the asshole parents bought them, they should be in jail", then it hit me -- Kyle's bio dad is the monster who started all this! Wow, that was a hell of a chapter!

I can see more of "our" Davey in this chapter. This is exactly the type of activity that Davey would have thrived on. It also gives him a plausible reason for hanging around the Politburo. He may have been able to kill Shevardnardze on the originally planned trip with the Arizona school trip, but getting away with it would have been difficult. This way he can accomplish the ultimate goal secretly and the official goal will set him up with the agency for the future.

What is that saying -- Prior planning prevents piss poor performance. They have that in spades. I have a good feeling about this one. I'm glad they are going to go their own way as couples for college. If this works, they have a long life ahead of them, they're going to need the skills that work for them to be successful.
-
Shevardnardze hasn't ever developed a time machine with anyone other than our local mad scientist. Would killing Dr. Crazypants get rid of the threat for future timelines? They'd still need to off Shevardnardze prior to 1988. Hmmmm, how do we get 19 year olds into the USSR in the year I graduated high school? Hair metal band on a world tour???

The optimism in me thinks that a team of 6 will be able to make more positive changes, especially since they are starting at age 12 (chronological). The pessimist thinks 6 is a lot to keep on track, especially since they are only 12 (hormone-wise). The realist is looking at only 7 remaining chapters and reasoning that we will finally have success for our boys!

I would love a spin-off! I agree that more stories are needed with and for adults. Life (and libido) does not end at 40!

Great chapter! I love Pete's attitude and comfort in his own skin. He doesn't judge others by their sex lives and doesn't understand why anyone should judge him. It's too bad that viewpoint isn't more universal. I look forward to reading more about Joe and Jake.

It would be cool if they all went back, but it seems like someone needs to stay behind to keep anyone else from coming through.
-
The Sean that came back is from the future of the current timeline. The mad scientist figured out the jamming and knew Sean was involved due to calculations he made in the cover-up.
-
This again! And we don't have the Davey & Ronnie show up and going already. At least Sean saved the future again.
-
We now know why Garjah was so against Bouncer in the beginning! The next chapter will be like a "meet the parents" moment on steroids.
