"They treated me like I was just a man": One woman's nightmarish ordeal.

I can't even fathom how you could write something like this without once thinking, "Wait, isn't this what a lot of single fathers go through? More often than not less than a 50/50 split."

faces the trauma of being without her children...every weekend

But it's okay that Dad has to go without Monday-Friday? Gotcha.

Holy fuck, how can they not realize the fucked up nature of that article.

"Its awful that a mother only gets 50/50 custody, but lets ignore the reality of most men who would love nothing more than 50/50 custody"

I can sympathize with her to a degree. I have 50/50 with my exwife and it sucks that he's only with me half the time. But you have to be an adult and accept that's the situation and the child has another parent equal to you in rights and responsibilities to that child.

With my kids, I never seen them cry over their mother. They never even said anything to allow me to assume they even missed her when they were with me.

When they had to go back to their mom they would hold on to me for dear life, cry and scream. Many times their mother would pull them away from me, denigrate and physically discipline them for acting so "childish" and refusing to instantly obey her parental commands. She was not open to discussion of - nor any change in - her behavior over the kids mental anguish and pain... neither were the courts, and according to my attorney it would have been "rocking the boat" if I tried to make an official issue of it. He said they would blame it all on me like she blamed it all on me. Apparently I must have been saying or doing something bad to make the kids act-out this way when they had to go back to their mother. In reality, they missed me and wanted to be with me instead of her, confirmed when each of them elected to come live with me when they turned 14.

"Imagine, then, the agonising pain of being privy to your child's life for only half the time."

This is just as pathetic as the whole '1 in 4 homeless people are women' sympathy cry!

I can't put into words how this kind of thing makes me feel! The ego-centrism of a feminist is beyond being pathetically stupid!

You wanted equality, feminists. Now you'll have it.

If you're struggling to cope with that, you're probably used to getting your way.

It does sound like the man got the better end of that custody deal, tbf. It's pretty rare to be granted every weekend.

Draggonzz · 2017-03-27T22:45:45+00:00

Heh.

They just regurgitated the same dribble from another article.
