Judge to Dad: ‘Visitation’ via Skype is Good Enough

Well I'm sure child support & alimony by digital photo of a check is good enough too then.

The mother had said she felt ‘isolated, trapped and depressed in England’

My ex has said almost the exact same thing. I live in constant fear that one day she will simply abscond to China (her country of birth) and I'll never see my children again.

I hope you realise the precedent that was just set.

I know this is slightly off-topic, but kudos to all you fathers that actually want to be in your children's lives and fight for the right to have contact with them.

It warms my heart. I hear so many stories from women about how their men find it so easy to walk away from any form of support, be it emotional or money, and it just reaffirms my trust in my fellow humans to know that some men take their parenting rights so seriously.

My husband, who has three children with his first wife, can't even imagine a world where he wasn't involved with the lives of his kids, and I so respect that about him.

Sorry to go on, just wanted to say hurray to all you wonderful fathers out there and that I hope each of you finds someone that supports you wholeheartedly.

Judge is obviously not a parent.

I wonder how the kids feel about it? I used to freak out every night for weeks straight when I was younger and the Army sent my dad overseas.

Skype is a wonderful tool to aid long distance relationships, but it's no substitute for the real deal. You can't hug your kids over the internet :(

.... so why not let the kids stay with Dad and Mommy dearest can go off to Australia?

Womenfolk, you made a choice when you become mothers. It was to put your kids first. Otherwise you're just bloody selfish. (says my mother anyways, but what would she know?)

I want to open the paper some day and read about a distraught father, like this man, who got fucked over by a judge and decided to kill the judge. I don't want to read that day. I want to read of the day when they get let off by a sympathetic jury.

Oh, family court. What injustice won't you do?

One day we will hang these traitor feminist males by the cojones.
