Watched this movie in the theatre as a kid, when my parents were going through a divorce. Didn't get to see my Dad much (haven't seen him at all since 10 y/o or so). This scene crushed me. I'm not ashamed (anymore) to say that I bawled in the theatre. To see a father fighting for his kids.. man. I wished my dad would've loved me that much.
If a parent wants to be in their child's life, my god, people need to do everything they can to help make it happen.
He didn't need any resources except a $2 bus ticket to see us. Parks are free. An hour a week in a park would've changed my life. It was a long time ago though, I'm okay now. I can understand how someone would think it best to stay away, even though I think it's a shit thing to do to someone.

This is from Mrs. Doubtfire, although your point still stands.
