How can I get to the main message menu? It stays locked on one persons messages and won't let me message anyone else. Can anyone help me?

You should be able to tap a different conversation you already have open. Try tapping the write new message button, it looks like the square with the pencil icon, right next to the word Messages, if it opens then tap the blue + sign.
You could also try to delete all you current open windows by tapping the Edit button then check marking all them > delete.
If you are still having problems first try to close Messages and then double tapping the Home Button to bring up the dock and long press on the messages app in the dock until you see it shaking with the red circle and completely turn it off, then re-open and see if that fixes it. If not you could try to reboot the iPad by holding the home button and the power button at the same time, ignore the "slide to Power Off" message and continue holding both buttons until you see the screen go black and the Apple logo appear.
