I  was shocked by Enrique's new wife.  I would not be so quick to tell people that he follows my insticts after how he treated an innocent 10 year old child. The fact that she went along with that behavior makes her look like a cold, unfeeling  and jealous woman.  Jealous that a 10 year old was getting some of her husbands money. Stopping those funds affected Selana more than Maria.  It bothered me that she didn't even seem to care about Selenas feelings, only that Maria had tricked her husband into paying child support for a child that wasn't biologically his.. a child however that he had loved and cared for for 10 years. She was a major factor in her husbands decision to stop paying and charge Maria with fraud.

 Who in their right mind tells the person they profess to love something that will only hurt them. Who tells someone I don't think your child is really yours, what was there to gain.. money is all I can figure.. Is this woman really that cold? How can she look in the mirror in the mornings.

 Most husbands after 10 years with a child would be more than happy to continue to care for the child if this came about...most would sit them down when old enough and say I am not your real father but I feel as though I am and hope that we can continue on as we have in the past.

We cared for a young gal here from Nicaragua for 6 months and have started an account in her country to help her with her medical expenses, food, etc.  She is not our child, but we connected while caring for her and we talk every month and do what we can for her and her family.  This was a hard show for me to watch, turning his back on that child was very disturbing for me.

  I understand Enrique's anger at Maria and no I don't think women should be able to just name anyone for child support but to inform Selena and abandoned her that way, wow, my heart went out to that little girl... If he didn't want to pay. go to court, confront Maria, but protect the innocent child in the best way you can. The fact that the new wife was okay with all this and didn't do all she could to correct the seperation between Enrique and Selena or to push for them to reconnect really upsets me and makes me wonder if she is a mother herself?

 I felt wife #2 was way out of line in the Selena / Enrique/Maria picture.  She had a motive, why else push Enrique not to pay, come on.  I hope she is happy that she destroyed a young childs trust, security, and love, not to mention the future emotional problems this young girl will experience due to this.  As far as I am concerned if Enrique gets out of paying.... then the money is as good as Blood Money.  Money gained at someone elses expense.. Selena's!  They are taking from a child not from Maria.

Yes Maria dupped Enrique to cover her mistake,  but it was mostly for Selanas sake..(you could consider it blood money but I don't think it went into her pocket) Wife #2  why so focused on this? Money, money, money, plain and simple. It certainly wasn't to put a smile on her husbands face or that of a young child. Shame on that cold hearted women. 

 For years women have done what is best for their child.  they have been known to lie, steal and cheat if they have to for them.. sad but true.  I feel society is partly to blame for that.  A lot of young women get pregnant and are left raising the child till the day they die, while many men walk away and continue on with their lives. There are many good men out there don't misunderstand me, but having 2 girls I do worry about who they are involved with and how responsible that person is.

Enrique what you did to that child to me is way worse than the fraud committed against you by Maria.
