I would also like to add that no matter what, do not ever lose hope nor dont ever walk away from your children.
I may have been only a visitor for many years, but my son has turned out to be a good young man and I have to admit alot of it is because I was always a factor in his life.
What the courts did was wrong, but now my son is grown and is starting to really understand the truth to why I was not there for him on a daily basis.

You are 100% correct about not walking away from your children. I stopped fighting in court in 1997, thinking my ex would be decent enough to keep her children in contact with their father. Big mistake! She cut them off from their entire extended family, changed their names, and who knows what else. My 17 year old son was killed a year ago November drunk driving, one month after he attempted to contact me.
Never give up!

I believe that if you are not found to be legally unfit to parent (or be a part) of your childrens lives and the other parent violates your orders in any way that it should be a crime with penaties such as: change in custody and/or child abuse to say the least.

Curious Guest, I must have to say that what you suggest is rather difficult when you have an ex that will not stop and does everything possible to make your life miserable and to keep your children away from you, with the help of attorneys, court officials, and other family members. I did try to make the best of my time with my child when I could, but many holidays, birthdays, we could not share together, much time was lost and can never be retrieved. I enjoy and cherish the little time I did have although it was never enough time. |

I have to agree with ya VisitorDad, many people dont realize all most of us fathers want to do is be involved with our children and put all the BS and these damn courts behind us. But like in my case, the mother and her attorney just cant seem to stop violating orders and harrassing me. They do not give a shit about my daughter and never have, its all about punishing me for whatever and getting all the money out of me that they can and then they will not give a shit if I'm laying in a ditch starving and rotting to death............its called erasing and replacing the slow way.
Edited: spelling
