Your description of Therese is so polite @Gary L. I suspect the twins are glad their parents are divorced as it means they get a break from their mother and are permitted to behave in a most "unladylike" manner in T-shirts and dungarees whilst climbing on things in the park. Heaven forbid they not be in dresses and sitting quietly with their legs crossed whilst doing something "female". Therese is possibly already planning on suitable boys to ensure her girls' futures.

I am nothing if not predictable. Another chapter and another song just leapt out at me as befitting the "intimate act". A restrained Mavis, she does not really reach "full throttle" in this one, but her voice is distinctive as always. And Pops backing vocal, so smooth in contrast to Mavis' raunchier rasp. Miss Arya was remarkably patient waiting until 10.00pm for her dinner. Adam and Kai may have to set a reminder on one or both of their phones to avoid this happening again as she may not always be so patient and forgiving. Where is @Cane23? @Paladin has called you to partake of your daily dose of "vitamins" but you have not answered. This chapter could well be a seminal one for you.

Outstanding start to this new story @Robert Hugill, with your usual rich character development. I already loathe Therese, does she also work outside the home, or just stay at home playing "Lady Muck"? She is a pretentious social-climbing harpy. Her image of how little girls should dress and behave is as ridiculous as it is sexist, offensive and unsustainable. Stupid cow wants to raise her daughters to be helpless little princesses. She needs a good slap or an evening out with Colin's odious brother Miles or Owain's brother-in-law Nathan. Love Jane and Alisa (even though I don't care for children as a general rule). Their vegetarianism is admirable, particularly as they made the choice themselves for ethical reasons and are adhering to it, despite the protestations of their odious mother. They are smart and already know what they need to do to placate their mother, whilst maintaining some individuality and spirited behaviour. And as for Ralph. It is no wonder he ended up married to a dragon like Therese. The poor man (or is it annoying wimpy fool) is so obsessed with image too, totally suffocating the man he well may be, just to satisfy societal pressures or some other bullshit which frames his behaviour. "Yet he knew, that if he admitted it did matter then everything that he'd built up would collapse, his entire life. And Ralph wouldn't or couldn't let that happening" and "Ralph was self-aware enough to know there was something else as well, something that if he acknowledged it would bring down his carefully constructed life. That Ralph wished his younger self had had the courage to continue exploring that side of himself, to accept that he liked boys. But that had been locked away and needed to stay there." I was very moved by the first statement of self-examination in particular @Robert Hugill. It speaks of a man totally despondent with his lot in life, recognising there is likely something better, but too afraid to embrace or explore the possibility. Trapped in a life of his own making and he is only 33. He should follow the fine example being set by his daughters and know when to revel in those "fuck you" moments. It was difficult to choose between the 'ha-ha' emoticon as represented by Jane and Alisa or the 'sad' emoticon as represented by Ralph. I settled on the latter as he is the object of this story. I hope the Breaking free part of the story title is truly indicative of his life to come. It looks like another winner from your fellow countryman @Gary L. I look forward to reading your insights into the characters who have appeared thus far.

Trinie and coke. It sounds like another Trinie from your "neck of the woods" @chris191070. Janice is a monster. She, Aaron and Trinie need to be taught a lesson, very slowly and painfully, screaming for death as a release but being denied it.

Now what to do about Janice. I know. A trip to an unlicensed plastic surgeon with Parkinson's disease who uses unsterilised equipment to perform a full body plastic surgery reversal on her. Oh the joy, the pain, the infection. Poor little Janice. NOT. I grew up watching The Brady Bunch, The Flinstones, Bewitched and Batman as after school TV @Ticklishboy30. I always hated Marcia fucking Brady (not as much as Cindy, she was the worst of the children). Mike was hot, but none of his sons appealed to me.

Sit back @Ticklishboy30. Kick off those shoes and pull down those ankle socks. Expose those soles and wiggle those toes. Arch those arches and high kick those heels 'cos The Fatback Band is in town. Love this song, this band and similar bands like BT Express and KC & The Sunshine Band.

"Dakota came running in just as Mikey pulled the trigger twice, putting a bullet into each one of the bare ass cheeks." Gives a whole new meaning to Abner being a "pain in the arse". A double wedding. What could possibly go wrong?

It's one thing to masturbate on the job, but quite another to share the object of the masturbation fantasy on the internet. If the Carter/Knight/Buckingham boys were comfortable being the object of the bellhop's pleasure one could perhaps have considered it as "on the job training", but this is not the case. Methinks the bellhop well may be doing the butthop soon, as opposed to the Busstop. The Fatback Band ain't gone nothing on the Carter/Knight Family. Butthop, butthop, are you ready, do the butthop, going to the front, going to the back, front, back, Fatback, are you ready, do the butthop. You may know The Fatback Band or Fatback as they were later known @chris191070 as they charted in the UK as they did in Australia.

Particularly when one considers where else that tongue is likely to have been and what it is likely to have done. A trip to the dentist should be scheduled for the children too @Lee Wilson. Is that question really necessary @Lee Wilson? @weinerdog is from California, of course he is cute. He is 188cm tall, tanned, lean but well muscled, blonde, has perfectly straight ultra-bright white teeth, blemish-free skin and a full head of hair, and if not, he can acquire all quicker than you can say Kardashian. I was very concerned initially @Paladin that the frequent slaps to the head may have caused some neurological damage to Steve, hence the stuttering. I am less concerned now as he has seemingly not exhibited any other common symptoms like balance problems, blackouts, seizures, lack of comprehension or violent mood swings, so I suspect you may be right in that anxiety has caused the stuttering. Perhaps his stuttering will start to show signs of improvement in his new happier less stressful home, just like accident prone Nick seems to have improved. I fully support @chris191070 and @drsawzall's recommendation that spermie be put in a concrete hole, but if I could make one small change to this request, fill his holes (both front and back) with concrete to the point of pain before placing him in said hole. Now for the incubator, same concrete different holes. Or perhaps a visit from Beverly Sutphin for both with a pair of scissors, a portable air-conditioning unit, a large family station wagon, a blow torch and large cut of cooked meat supplied by the DA's officer for her convenience.

The healing process has started, with a big boost from the parents. Now where are those Dixie Cups @Ticklishboy30? Oh here they are, ready, willing and able.

Janice and "Elizabeth", two evil psychopaths. The Carter/Knight families will rally and bring them both down.

It is time for a good old-fashioned hoedown, with a twist. Take one ho, aka Janice, and take her down. Payback is a bitch Janice, and she makes you look like a Sunday school teacher you pathetic little runt. It is about time gelignite Janice paid for her crimes @Ticklishboy30. Take one Janice, stuff all her orifices with enough gelignite to cause extreme harm but not death. Problem solved.

He got mixed up with the wrong "crowd" i.e. the viperous Janice.

Janice is a runt with a capital C. I hope she and the delusional group she belongs to are stripped of all their wealth and it is donated to any one or more group to which they are vehemently opposed. And for Janice herself, a stint in prison where her cell-mate is Bertha Butt, whose sadistic pleasures Janice is forced to accommodate frequently. @Ticklishboy30 Will did surprise me. There is hope for his redemption yet.

I never underestimate what scum some of our so-called fellow humans are. The pain that is inflicted on animals on a daily basis, much of it sanctioned e.g. product testing, scientific experimentation, slaughterhouses, is evidence enough. Dakota and Mikey united by adversity. At least we know the "other Will" is in safe-hands with Master Paul. I hope both he and Janice are in deep shit, especially Janice.

Unfortunately I have to agree with you @Paladin. It would be a major about face to go from "nancy boy poofter" to my "beloved gay son".

Yes, yes and yes @chris191070, although I don't think bitch is strong or offensive enough to describe Janice. Shall we call her one fucked up Marjorie. I too had thoughts that Will will come to realise he is gay when the pleasure he experiences with Master Paul eventuates. This will likely infuriate Janice, making it even more pleasurable for we readers. Hopefully Mikey's health issue is something relatively minor which is readily treatable. I am hoping Janice's downfall will be something spectacular, something truly degrading for her to be subjected to, repeatedly @Ticklishboy30.

I am hoping @Ticklishboy30 that TL is bisexual and has a rendezvous with Janice, one in which it is her head which is slammed against a wall before her slow tortuous demise. What a horrible, nasty, entitled bitch she is. And for her to call William Parks, white trash. And although he is, it is a case of the pot calling the kettle black. She is also not particularly bright, in fact, she is as dumb as a post. She will be the first suspect I should imagine in the threats made against Mikey and destruction of his property. Perhaps she may be useful for spare parts.

"Elizabeth" the security guard certainly made a good impression on the Police Commissioner. Somehow I don't think he will be fast-tracked into the Police Force unless the position entails buying the squads donuts and polishing their shoes. TL. Torture lover, tool licker, total loser? The possibilities are boundless. Mikey is very observant (unlike the aforementioned "Elizabeth"). I wonder if he will team up with Dakota to solve the murders. Lance and Sean have an unusual relationship by heteronormative standards, but it seems to work well. An enjoyable chapter @Ticklishboy30.

“You think that’s what this is, power play, look at me I can have who I want?” “Maybe. But I want none of it.” A hole in one so to speak. I think Vaughan summed up Francis' attitude to life in general, and especially to sex. The ultimate egotist. Odalisque - another education opportunity @Robert Hugill. A word I have never encountered before, made very amusing by the comment which followed thereafter "except they were rarely 6 ft, broad, with a hairy chest and the pants did nothing to hide what was underneath." Much to amuse in this chapter, with Vaughan's acerbic wit to the fore again. I particularly liked "I’ve never been a star-fucker and it turned out that neither was Dan. Instead, we had an enjoyable bitch as we wandered round."

Maybe he does not have a heart of stone after all @weinerdog, or maybe he thinks Tim really was singing it to Samantha. Given his previous remarks about "nancy boy poofters" I doubt he will be pleased when he learns the object of Tim's affection is not only not Samantha but is not even a woman. Snowy is a beacon of normality in a school where I imagine dogma played a large role. If, and it is a very big if, he is a kindred spirit he would have kept his private life private for fear of dismissal, something which is still legal in Australia in religious based schools, even though they receive significant taxpayer funding and have to abide by all other laws. A delightful chapter as all have commented @Mark Ponyboy Peters and whilst "the song" was the highlight for most, the highlight for me was Snowy's affirmation of Tim and Guy's relationship. I had vaguely remembered he was supportive, but to see his support again in writing was overwhelmingly moving. And finally, neither Tim nor Guy required any words of wisdom from Kylie, although I am sure she would have been only too happy to offer had they asked. Now Tim take it Slow and Breathe, for On A Night Like This when you intend to express your Finer Feelings for Guy, remember I Believe In You. It's Never Too Late to tell him how you feel because at one time or another All The Lovers in the world have had doubts, but if you Confide In Me there will be a Celebration tonight that will have you Spinning Around.

Now that sounds encouraging @Robert Hugill. If the comments above and before are any guide I think many would be delighted if that pondering led to More, More, More Keith and Thomas.

Mikey and Dakota both strike me as having abundant kindness and a childlike innocence which has led both to being easily hurt. Their increased connection at the end of this chapter had me thinking of my fellow Aussie and the Goddess of Pop, with her mammoth hit single of 2001 Can't Get You Out Of My Head being apropos. A charming opening chapter @Ticklishboy30.

Maybe Guy needs some help, some words of wisdom from our fellow Aussie and our Goddess of Pop @Cane23:

Go Dolly go; those Bropops are at IT again.
