Why is it that a woman can take a man's child from him any time she chooses?

Question

By using cheap tactics used by slim ball attorneys, such as restraining orders. A woman only has to make the accusation and in family court the judge has to take her word for it. The restraining order issuance is so badly abused by women that it is common in almost all contested divorces.
And what repercussions does she face because of making false statements and lies? None.
Plus since family court is set up in favor of mom off the bat it becomes costly for men who want to have their children in their lives to fight long court battles that could easily run over the course of the child’s life.
Being that our society tells us that men are bumbling fools who are not capable of raising children, voters shoot down any initiative that would make it mandatory that parents share custody, given both are fit.
So to all you fathers out there, how does it feel knowing that your wife if she chooses could take your children at anytime? What are we going to do about that? I suggest you support any father’s rights group by joining and passing the word to everyone you know about how in today’s world of equal rights there is a grave violation of equality against us fathers.

Answer 1

That is just ONE of many double standards against men. Ironically men give women those unequal “rights”, yes men are still in power, men are very protective towards women, and women are just the opposite towards men!

Answer 2

Actually, you are wrong. I have just heard of 2 cases just recently where the father was granted custody of his children. In one case the mother was sent to jail for not returning the children after a visitation time.

Answer 3

I have worked with domestic violence abusers, most particularly those who have had restraining orders filed against them, and I can tell you that there is no simple answer. Human relationships are complex, and no one should rush to judgment, especially when it come to the welfare of children. Perhaps historically it was easier for men to pack up and move whenever it worked for them. I do know that men and fathers are not the enemy.

Answer 4

Unfortunately men have done this to themselves. Most victims of violent crime are women and the the person committing the crimes are their husbands, boyfriend and partners...so in order to protect all the feminists were able to easily throw all men into the same category and set up a sytem of family justice that is anti men. It is not men`s right`s groups you need to join but electing politicians who believe in equal rights and truly believe in the rights of the children.

Answer 5

It is a mess. Any male that doubts it wouldn't after going through an ugly divorce.

Women have all the rights in these situations. A man has only those that he can afford to take.

Answer 6

If you keep in touch and meet your responsibilities and express love, when your kids are old enough they will find their way to you. Do not give up, but don't do ANYTHING that tarnishes your image as a father. Divorce the spouse, but not the children.

Answer 7

For the same reasons a man can take a child from its mother: A good lawyer.

Answer 8

i would like to goto those fathers rights groups and ask them how and where they met the horrible women who would actually do that to someone and why they chose to impregnate such an off-minded human being.

Answer 9

This is all a product of Evolution

Life is Ugly. Very very ugly.

Answer 10

We gave them birth!!!!!!! In most cases the mother is the fit parent and should have custody of the child.
