When you have a message to get across and politicians refuse to listen what do you do…? climb onto the roof of their home and stage a protest of course!
These two guys, members of the organisation Dads 4 Justice did just that recently; they climbed onto the rooftop of the MP Harriet Harman’s own house and raised their banner…”A father is for life, not just conception”.
Dad’s in the United Kingdom get a pretty raw deal in the family courts when it comes to custodial arrangements for their children with these two guys in the photo prime examples of the anger and discontent felt by many men. Currently the workings of the family court system in the UK are kept strictly confidential but there is obviously a need to make the system more open to public scrutiny.
While I believe that there are cases where children are better off with their mother after a relationship breakdown - especially where violence on behalf of the man has been the case – there are many men, good Dads, who have very few rights with regards to their children and are treated as nothing more than ‘walking wallet’s’ who are expected to pay up, shut up and are subject to the whims of their bitter female ex-partners.
Give Dad’s more rights; let’s see Dad’s getting the same consideration in custody cases as women. And let’s see the law get tough with women who use their kids as a way of getting ‘even with Dad’.
