Wouldn't it be terrible for Denise and her family if this was taken seriously? - It's so well written and I particularly loved the funny bit where Michael was going to fast for Denise - a good fast always does a person good - however, it might be construed as cruel...

Great writing skills though - a sit-com writer in the making (if not already).

Mental illness is a very serious issue and probably not the right thing to be using these very clever and enviable writing skills on. It just opens the door for abuse - never a good thing really. Denise is struggling (evidently) and it's really sad. I believe she has struggled for some time. A little bit of compassion and some small attempt at understanding might go a long way.

Just something for consideration - not trying to preach or cause any offence - I just think she has opened herself up and is getting very small reward for it and I worry that her children might read all the stuff being bandied around about their mum.

Can you write anther funny, observational piece though? (Maybe with a less controvertial subject...)
