Well done Real Fathers For Justice for once again highlighting the dreadful injustice to so many dads, grandparents, step children, aunties, uncles and siblings. Every day more and more innocent loving fathers and their families are being prevented from having what every child needs, two parents!
The Family Courts treat fathers like aliens in the secrecy of their courts. The Family Law needs urgent reform and good luck to these men and women campaigning for a change in the law and justice and equality.

Fantastic! All the best to the Real Fathers For Justice for what they are doing! Change is long past due and there's no time like the present. Such Draconion and incompetent family laws should be opposed until there is a dramatic shift within the Government, so as to recognise the fundamental importance of Fatherhood to Children! Keep fighting guys and girls!!

all the best to fathers4justice. the law needs changing to let estranged fathers have more say in bringing up their children.
one question for the legal people - does the european human rights act have jurisdiction over uk family law.
not being a legal person i ask this question because as i ubderstand HRA gives everyone equal rights?.
please enlighten me.

Social services stopped me from seeing my kids and i was stopped. Years later they wrote me an apology saying they where wrong and sorry. To late! The damage is done!

Until you experience the unbelievable bias and frustrations of the current system which does not allow the father any contact until you get to court and only then do you get an oportunity to negotiate. unless your partner deems it suitable at her discretion. Why has only one parent got the power to decide why why why. well done real fathers

Can I just comment on Karens point: Not all children need two parents. If the father is abusive towards the mother and the child, surely the court is right in protecting the family from the father? From personal experience I am glad my father was not around and I am also glad that the father of my child is not around as he was abusive and threatening and still continues to be so on the rare occassion I have to have contact with him. Why would I want my child to experience this kind of behaviour. Since leaving him I have gained a degree and continued education to become a teacher, the father of my child did not help me whilst I was with him or after I left - why should I do him any favours?
Respect to the real dads out there who are upstanding and do want to be with their children and families, but not every child needs two parents.

I think change is coming soon. This travesty has got to stop. Fathers have rights, and so do their children.

Very much would like to know if there are any groups, in Washington, State, of fathers working to change the Child Support/custody law.
I'd love to join the support group.

Keep up the good work. Your brothers in the US support these demonstrations. One day fathers will have equal access to their children and these demonstration will help educate the government, media and general public of the terrible problem fathers and children endure following divorce.

Well done Real fathers For Justice fighting for children to have the right to be brought up by both parents.

It takes two to make them - it takes two to raise them!!

When will tony blair, father of four children, do something for the millions of children denied access to one loving parent.

America supports our superheroes worldwide. Way to go Real Fathers 4 Justice!

Well done Real Fathers 4 Justice.

In response to MR Manchester regarding "not all children need both parents"

You may well be right about your own father and that of your child, and nobody is campaigning for all parents to have un-fettered, unaccountable rights or responsibilities. Every parent should have the right to parent, and if they abuse that right, those rights should be sanctioned or removed. Until parents have rights to be honoured and upheld in the face of someone or the State abusing or unduly interfering with those rights, we have a system that continues to disrespect parents, and allows individuals and the State to seriously affect child/parent relationships. The loopholes for abusing the system are huge, and the lack of parental rights is the simple way the failing legal system operates. To enshrine parents rights would mean that the family legal system would have a duty to honour a parents rights, instead of just discarding them in the false belief they doing it in the best interest of the child.

Real Fathers For Justice is campaigning to change the law for parents to have legal parenting rights, which will allow them to carry out their parental responsibility. They campaign to overhaul the failing judicial systems, so that state sanctioned abuse of children and parents can no longer slip through. And at no point anywhere is anybody campaigning for cases to be handled in a one size fits all way. Every family is different, with different circumstances, and therefore every case will still need to be measured and judged on its own merits. This is how abusive or failing parents will be determined to have infringed their rights, by a proper process of assessment and review. Today, no such thing exists, and each case is measured on it merits under the secrecy of the courts, by poorly trained welfare officers, bias, hearsay and discrimination.

Well done Real Fathers, fighting for justice. It's about time more good mothers joined your campaign if they truly believe that mothers & fathers are equally capable of being good or bad parents, and laws should exist to determine those differences without any historical bias or stereotyping.

Howay the dads!

Support fathers rights and Fathers for Justice. There's too much state interference and incompetence. Children need their fathers and fathers need their children.

Way to go Real F4J! The fight is just begining to assure our Children continue to have fathers in their lives even after divorce or seperation.
Parental Alienation is real and tolerated or ignored by our courts, even here in the US.
We are united in our fight for equality in our domestic courts and will not let up until we accomplish our goals worldwide.
Children deserve Superhero Dads! Keep up the great work!

Well done i have an idea which might help our cause please phone me on the above number.

According to the Government, fathers already have the same rights as the mothers in relation to their children after separation or divorce. Perhaps someone should explain to this goverment the following: Your marriage finished because your wife decides to end it. Your children are taken away from you. Your house is taken from you. You spend thousands of pounds on unscrupulous solicitors. While in most cases, mothers claim thousands from the public purse in legal aid money to finance their unjust actions in a Family Court. Then you are forced to live in a tiny dirty bed-sit because its all you could afford after paying the CSA for children you couldn't even see or sent presents or letters to. You are accused of domestic violence for which with no evidence you are criminalised in a family court. Where every penny and possession you ever worked for in your life is taken away from you. Then you are made so ill and depressed you are prescribed anti-depressant tablets for years in order to cope with your situation. You write and speak to numerous politicians who will ignore you and fob you off down the same road to despair. I applaud the actions taken by F4J and other groups in protesting for the right to spend some time with their children.

Keep up the good work! It will take extreme persistence to have these laws changed worldwide. It is a business that generates a great deal of money at the expense of children. They will try to hold on to this gravy train for as long as they can!

They will try to discredit the ones who are exposing the indecencies and try to divide all that try to organize.

We are the majority that feel that children deserve two loving parents in their lives equally.

United we stand, divided we fall!

Way to go U.K.

P.S. Thanks for the Subs! HaHa

A man costumed as an alien space invader protested at the Granada Studios in support of a fictional character who was portrayed as being cheated out of time with his child by a vindictive ex-girlfriend.
The reality is - too many children are denied time with caring, loving fathers by similar vindictive ex-wives and girlfriends.
By their actions, these women demonstrate they care little for their children's emotional lives. Laws should be changed to provide penalities for such people who flout custody orders.
Children need both parents!

When are the politicians and law lords going to make some "real" concerted effort to make changes to a system that sponsors child abuse and destruction of the lives of many caring dads both in the UK and abroad? These guys (and gals!) are noble in the peaceful efforts to bring to peoples' attention the current injustices. The tone of the legal system seems to want to support kids and dads more, but still there is no "real" substance to this. The Real F4J needs everyones' support as most people in the UK tend to agree in the principles of sex equality and yet the elected state still maintains an out-moded operation based on the out-moded ideas that children should always be with their mother. Society recognises that children have a better chance with a supportive and loving wider family so when is the Legal System going to reflect that for Real?

Well played that man!! Major changes are needed and soon. A fatherless society is the aim of this government!
