I don’t doubt there are some fathers who are denied access to their children without justification. But I also strongly believe that those fathers are a minority. Fathers 4 Justice perpetuate the myth that women are somehow priveliged members of society with more rights than men - which is bollocks, if you’ll pardon my language.

Why do you not have the strength to be you, Anji, without having to deny me the right to be me?

I am assuming this means something, but I’m not sure what.

My son has a great relationship with his father, though we are no longer together. I thoroughly believe that if you have been told by a court that you can’t see your children, then there is a damn good reason for that. F4J seems to be a bunch of entitled, privileged men whining that they had something taken away that they clearly do not deserve, if their ridiculous stunts and immature behaviour is anything to go by.

Goodbye, I shall not waste my time here again.

Go away Nick, you sanctimonious, selfish fool.

I cannot begin to imagine what your childhoods were like, or how ghastly it must have been to have had an abusive father. No doubt I was very fortunate myself to have had a good father. Nevertheless, whatever your fathers did to you or to your mothers has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on whether or not my child should be allowed to have a relationship with his father.

Until people like you can understand that there will inevitably be a need for Fathers 4 Justice.

Yep, me too.

Violence, tried to force a miscarriage, stalking. Then he kidnapped me and told me he would kill my mother if she found us. Lots more that I too will someday blog about when I feel up to it.

But he definitely kidnapped me to control my mom.

He also withheld child support to control her too.

Fathers’ rights, errrrrrrrrrgggggggggg.

Any hope the subtle approach will get the idea across? No? Thought not.

it never ceases to amaze me how many people are sympathetic for their cause - until I relate my tale of my errant ‘father’, who threatened my mother with violence, rape, death, and said he was going to stalk her till she had a mental breakdown - my ‘father’ on who finding out my mother was pregnant promptly stole her car and buggered off round the country to sell drugs out of it, then when he got out of jail dragged her through the court system, didn’t turn up to any court appearances until the case got thrown out.. and then claimed sex discrimination and promptly joined fathers 4 justice. sigh.

Oh, thank goodness, I’ve been wanting to make that post about PETA for a long, long time. Except I could never write anything that eloquent and to the point.

Well, I’m a guy, but I must admit we do have it alot eisier than women. Women have to have periods, birth babys and then heer us complain about how hard we have it. Then, they have to heer society say men are superior, even thou (and we dont admite it) we ALL rely know its the exact opposite. EVERY one knows women are smarter, and men don’t live as long wich PROOVES women are superior. I hate to admit it.
