Hi Lisa...I check this board everyday just in case someone posts and today is the lucky day!. .They are mostly male orientated groups because its mainly men that have lost physical custody. I think mums who lose their kids feel so much guilt and shame that at one workplace I never told anyone that I didn't have residency. My new work is great though.hope to see soem more posts here.!

You had no idea that the ad was targeting fathers ?

Unfortunately because courts favor mothers over fathers in custody disputes, mothers who lose custody are seen as having some defect of character.... Why else would a court give custody to the father ?

Every court is seen by fathers and mothers alike when a decision doesnt go their way..... If you truly believe an injustice was served upon you, get your evidence together and fight for your kids.

Hi, Ive been trawled through a 3 year battle still going. 2 and a half years to get into court for trial and he has had custody while waiting. In the meantime though and at age 34 I got into law at uni - 3 year degree. And a professor who is a lawyer has represented me for free even though legal aid declined. If there is anyone in need I would recommend him - he's in Sydney. He doesnt mind all the embarassing bits of the case, doesnt believe the spin that the othe side puts on.
Anyway, the other option is, do a law degree so this stops. Mothers should be able to feel safe n their role as Mums just like a man does in his career. A man has almost his whole life to have children, our time is limited and precious. lleini@hotmail.com
