My dad doesn't live my mother anymore, and mum doesn't want us (me and my siblings) going up there to see him because "she's" there and she will try and buy our affection. Mum will only let him come over all he has to do is suggest it and mum will be happy to organize it. Yet he would like us to come and see him. Do I have a right to see him if i wish it? Please be as honest as possible, i really need the help

He lives up at Thursday Island, just off the coast of Horn Island if you don't know where it is.

I have recently talked to my mother and she has given me choice either see my father or have an operation on my foot. It has a lot to do with money and that my siblings would also want to go, but dad hasn't the room. My mother also said i could go only when i am 18.

here is a 2 part answer, Yes you have the right to see your dad, No matter what your mom said, Unless he a child molester, Then No.,
Does having the operation at this time really needed?. If so then take the operation, if it can be later in life, then do that and go see your dad. I hope this helps

I'd honor your mom's wishes. I'd wait for you dad to come and visit you. He's free to do that. Your mom's feeling very vulnerable and hurt and left behind because your dad's with 'HER' and SHE's having fun and doesn't have responsibility and your mom's imagining how different and better HER life must be - which it probably is.
No doubt if you visit your father and SHE is there, SHE will be all great and giving and sunshine and sweetness. SHE's going to see you a short time and your mother has the responsibility of raising you and your siblings. Gee, I wonder how your mother must feel about those two very different situations? Hmmmm. I'd tell your dad he can get in a car and come and visit you whenever he wants. I'd try to back your mother on this one, at least until the divorce is final.

Yes. Every child has the right to see his or her father. Be honest with the parent that you are living with. You care for both of your parents. Let the parent that you reside with, know just how you feel about the missing parent. Then if all else fails, you may have to try other alternatives. Unless your father was violent or committed some horrible crime, then there should be no reason why you can't see your father. Remember this, What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? - Romans 8:31. The Lord daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah. - Psalm 68:19. Peace and God Bless.

Of course you have the right to see your father. My son is 7 and although i cannot stand his dad and new girlfriend there is no way i feel i have the right to prevent them from having a relationship, i feel that my son would only resent me for this and he will make his own mind up about his father when ready.
If a parent feels that a child is at danger when at the absent parents' house this is a different matter, and the child should be prevented from going unsupervised, but if reasons are due to anger about the relationship breakdown etc etc then preventing children from seeing their parent is totally selfish.

We can't tell you because there could have been a judges order in the divorce. Try to understand how your mom feels. She's probably correct. Not that it is a bad thing, but maybe your mom can not afford to buy you things all the time. Maybe you could compromise and meet him at a shopping mall or something and have a day out?

Everyone has a right to exercise their choices ... subject to certain circumstance which may restrict the ability to exercise the choice ..... find out what is getting in the way and work at it

Have you talked to your mom? She has no right to keep you from seeing your Dad,tell him,and he can make her let you see him.he has visitation rights.She has no say in where he takes you,as long as it is not against the law.

Maybe you should call your Dad and he can talk to your mom.
If she lets your dad come to your house, maybe she can hear from you how important it means to you and she will consider letting you go with him. Its a shot anyways.

Yes jo you have all the rights in the world to see your father. Just remember what I told you....
Tell "her" to buy you a car then you will love her. When she does she'll be like "do you love me now"
You say ha ha haaaa.......No."
