My significant other has not seen his twin boys in 12 years and his daughter in 8 years. He is an incredibly special man who is the hardest worker. I know he has been withheld from his children wrongfully and does not have the means to take the mothers to court. I only want him to be able to have a relationship with his kids that he deserves.

My granddaughter is trapped in the El Paso county court system. My son is suffering from terrible parental alienation and there’s got to be a stop to it. My granddaughter is the one who’s ultimately suffering and I stand behind this 100%.

I am currently living with my boyfriend and his son. His ex wife (sons mother) is in rehab so the child is safer here. He does have 50/50 custody, however I still see unfair treatment for the father in this situation.
The state of Utah is still requiring my boyfriend to pay child support while the child lives with him. He was recently laid off so in order for us to keep his child support current, I am the one now paying his ex wife child support while their child lives here and she is in rehab. According to the state of Utah, she is the only one that can stop the child support payments, unless we take her to court.
When this was discussed with her she refused to cooperate stating that she “needs money for cigarettes when she gets out”
So essentially we pay her child support, so she can have drug and cigarette money all while the child lives with us full time and is enrolled in school in Colorado.

I grew up having my father and step father made out to be monsters. However, after a series of events both became a huge part of my life and my biggest supporters. I truly believe that keeping children from their fathers is an evil thing to do from both mothers and the court system. Gender should not be a factor in these cases and yet it seems it is the biggest one.

The court system historically has been decades behind the need. The need to provide child support and spousal support came from a time of single income homes which is not the norm anymore, now that both parents typically work there is no reason that fathers should be having to fight so hard for equal access to their children. Statistically speaking children in single father homes do far better in life than children in single mother homes.

I have been completely railroaded by the system. My ex wife has millions of dollars and was able to hire very expensive lawyers that did everything they could to ruin my life and to keep our son with his father. The CFI was completely biased and even made things up that weren’t true. I only saw my son for a total of 400 hrs the first year of our divorce. The courts and police did nothing to keep my ex wife from drinking and driving with our son. My son was very sad a depressed and no one in this broken system cared about him. They only listened to the lies that my ex wife told and her lawyers perpetuated. The judge didn’t look at any of the evidence and didn’t even listen to our request for 50/50 care of our son. I know that drug addicted wife better husbands get more time with their children then I do. The system is broken from the judges to the CFI to the police and lawyers. Complete strangers get to decide what’s right for children they’ve never met or spoken to. I love my son more than anything in the world and all he wants is to be with his dad.

My children were taken from me as a result of unfounded lies that their mother fed to the court system.

The things she said were unfounded and she presented no evidence of her claims. My children were taken regardless of that.

I'm a father, speaking on behalf of my children. I've been working through the court system for years trying to get my children fair time with both of their parents. I've done nothing wrong, and I don't deserve the trauma and financial issues advocated for the best interest of my children.
