....who wore a "21" t-shirt.

Sorry, Lookin, I have not gone over "to the other side."

He was outside the Family law Court at Dandenong, Victoria. The "21" turns out to be a Child Support Agency documented paper regarding the number of male suicides each and every week directly related to non-payment of Child Support.

By coincidence I was wearing my old "DADS Austalia" t-shirt and stopped for a chat.

And then a man came up to me and described his Family Court experience .... for the last 12 months he had totally been in full-time care for his daughter only to be told by the court that his bipolar defacto druggy ex is "the responsible person for this child."

I know all about that. In my case, my psycho ex (who is still on medication) had court bias in her favour as well. I was not allowed to bring up her mental health as I am not a doctor, but she could accuse me (without proof) that I was the psycho. The court agreed and I was ordered to be treated by a psychiatrist, without being able to present any background information or documentation (otherwise I would have been in contempt of court).

How the court system operates in such a blatently biased way is beyond me.

Just like all the latest politicing about domestic violence. Yet there is utter willful ignorance that 40% of all domestic violence is women against men. But woman violence against men is quite acceptable in this society and in the media that refuses to report this truth.

My ex was one of those 40%. Yet I am the "mongrel" according to the courts.

Go figure this one out.......

Is this common in Australia? I know here in the states some say it is. But from what I have seen in court rooms here is the man stands as good a chance as the woman receiving custody of the children. And many times do. Unless there is a viable reason he should not. Many times divving the child up. My daughters husband and his ex share custody of the child. It is a win win for all of us. And her being my youngest grand daughter and so precious a win for me also! Thank goodness his ex is not a nut job and encourages family bonding. After my daughters wedding the little darling started to call me grandma. Because of her mother being so willing to share and try and make a good life for her childwine

And sadly goes unreported many times. I sometimes wonder if it is more so with men than women. sigh

Family courts are often unfairly biased against men.

Here, if a man is not married to the mother of the child, they have no rights at all. It is totally wrong.

There are lots of good dads out there who should be allowed to be a major part of their childrens lives.

Children should not be used as weapons in a breakup.

been there , got the tea shirt . System has the power what it likes . I always(mostly) left the other party to do the fighting while I got on with the work of bringing up the children with me . I found that person concerned did not mind me looking after the kids just did not like others , her family in the main , seeing that . While I didn't care what they new . Never fight when the dice are loaded .

That is s sad! I can't tell you how many men I've helped here in the states to fight against women like her. My best friend....who's like a brother finally one custody of his son after a 10yr battle. His ex was a total nut job...I mean total! Doing stuff like taking their child to a psychiatrists behind the fathers back...they son started telling him this at age 5...and I had him fax the final judgement over to the drs...and tell them they better not speak with the child until they speak with him as court ordered. He stopped pushing custody about 8 yrs ago because his family and gf at that time told him the atty I sent hime to just wanted his money and that he should just give up...he'd only paid $1200 for a yrs worth of work. He and I had stopped talking because I had spent 3 long yrs investigating for him and helping him...,for free!...and we were only maybe 2 more court appearances away from him getting him when he did what his gf said to do. I was PISSED. About 4 yrs ago we reunited...thank god he broke up with that hoochie...lol...and asked me to help again that things had gotten worse. I told him ON,Y if he told his family to Help him with the atty....rehire the same atty.....and do exactly as I and the atty said. And he did. One of the best things I guided him on....was no matter what she was saying or doing...he MUST NEVER EVER say anything bad about the mother around his son...and his friends and family better not. And to tell his son...no matter what to obey his mother. That young man was brought into court and spoke better than most adults....and my friend got custody of his son. With this being said though....I'd a never jst believed what he said about her. He was my neighbor...when he first told me about her I made Hm prove woth facts what he was saying. He walked into his house, got the CDs of recorded msgs, and all his documents and dropped them on my table. I make it a point to never believe what someone says about someone. Never....but showing me the facts will definitely pursued me to help anyone.
