Believe me, what you may read in that book is TOTALLY one sided... her temper is & was no worse than any other frazzled mother, & as for her kidz impinging on her time (i assume this relates to her gym visits & going out) who begrudges a mother a break - and really, how long does it take to do a workout.... if she spent 5 hours a WEEK at the gym - is that so bad? & its not like she went out dancing on her own - her "loving" husband was at her side
please think b4 making such a comment as knowing that she obviously didnt grieve 4 her kidz.... i was there... i saw her grief.... and.... y arent u judging craig as harshly - kathy hardly got pregnant on her own & was not the one in that relationship pushing for more children

Believe me, what you may <snip> her own & was not the one in that relationship pushing for more children

Hi Megz,

I worked with Craig and Danny, who you would know, no doubt if you knew the Follbigs, I do not understand the comments quoted above about Craig, he was never on trial for any of the childrens deaths, I attended Sarahs funeral, I saw Craigs greif, and some from Kath also, having lost my first daughter to SIDS, and seeing my ex wifes emotion and comparing that to Kath may or may not be a good example, so I wont, but at some stage or other, seeing as how all the appeals processes that saw Lindy C get a new trial have been exhausted, that there is, no matter how much you or Kath want to protest her innocence, the greater probability that Kath killed those kids than didnt, Kath would have had ample oportunity to explain diary entries, at the time of trial, no doubt, and some of them are far more revealing than you want to let on, sickening when you compare them to the poem written by my ex, when our baby died.

Kath had ample oportunity to seek help, she even said as much in saying in her diary that she would wake Craig, when she was pregnant with Laura, if she felt that way again....
more to come.......

It is very honourable that you are standing by Kath, I must say, but I still dont see the relevance to the fact that it takes two to make a baby, are you trying to blame Craig in some way? You have also alluded to Craig having "wandering eyes"(and other body parts) yet Craig also struck me as a good father and husband, this is called distraction, taking away from the facts, Craigs faithfulness to Kath was never mentioned at trial, so why bring it up here unsubstantiated.

You also claim the book to be one sided, no more one sided than your veiws are, and in the end, none of the evidence was "thrown out of court", Kath was still found guilty.

Im sure Kath is grateful for a friend like yourself, but there are trees behind that forest your veiwing

Regards

I am a survivor of post-natal depression and can understand the frustration of a crying baby and the feelings of hopelessness, despair amongst other things. But i have just finished reading the book " When the bough breaks " and my heart was in my mouth on most diary entries that this monster that she falsely believed to herself was a mother?? A mother protects her babies not extinguishes them of their lives. I believe this woman ( as i cannot even begin to write her godforsaken name ) will never admit to her guilt because she has blocked it all out. Come on people,four dead babies in one family? If it smells like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck well it has to be a duck. I feel for the father Craig and wish him well, to hopefully have a family and need not worry that they will be killed off because of their intrusion on the so-called mother's (scoff)!! life. This monster of a woman will face another hearing beyond this world, and be assured, they will not be so lenient. Also why not put her in with the normal population of prisoners and see if she can defend herself as innocently as her children did?
I would like to say that anyone who has an opinion on this woman's innocencethat they should read the above mentioned book first and then if they still think she is innocent, check in with an optometrist.

Just one question to all the people who have commented on this subject!
Which one of you is God!
I have read alot on this case I dont know if she did or if she didnt so how the hell can you know!
I know you must be GOD or kathleen!
Australia has a little thing called reasonable doubt with no physical evidence there is reasonable doubt
My own mother lost a child to a disease I am glad you lot never read her diaries or else myself and my brother would never have been born!
as my poor tormented mother would be doing a life sentence
If her husband suspected that she had harmed her infants why the hell did he help her have more!

No one is playing god, just people commenting on a contraversial case, the fact some of knew those involved, only adds to the conjecture

the fact some here try to turn this into a kick Craig Folbigg, rather than concentrating on the facts of the case, doesnt make sense

self blame works a lot differently to "with a little help", there is always an "if" factor, if I did this, if I did that, suggest you read the diary transcripts, and compare to your mums......
