When Mom Dates, Dad Stops Visiting His Kids

The title of the article is misleading and shows anti-father bias: the article clearly states that both the father and the mother should work on the father's relationship with the kids.

I would think that the mother's relationship status affecting the relationship of the bio-father with his kids, is an indication of the mother pushing the bio-father away, rather than him "abandoning" his kids. After all, it is her relationship status, not his.

The way I look at this research is that it is a statistical proof of widespread PAS (parental alienation syndrome). For researchers to have noticed such a statistical difference, means that when women don't need the bio-father anymore because they have a new bf, they just cut him off from his kids. I imagine that many women must have done this, for it to show up in the statistics.

I want to know why when you're married you can keep any adult away from your children, but when you're divorced you're not afforded that same right unless you have physical custody of the children. That is, men watching another man raise their kids. Shouldn't the father be able to say that he doesn't want that other man anywhere near his children?

To me part of what is written is misleading. It's says a "mother's social decisions". She is not the only one who is making the decisions.
