Fatherhood is one of the most important aspects for a young child to experience,since their birth. we must understand the enormous value a REAL father has oppose to a sperm donor! the challenges we face we won"t alone any more for it's time out for how the system is design stacked against REAL fathers willing able and ready to participate in the lives of their children! All too many times when a relationship no longer works out the child often times suffers twice, the initial breaking of the family then how their loving father is now protrayed thru the proceedings. Time out for the across the board treatment one size fits all of good men who father their children! lets unite for this worthy cause an make change..change that affects our common circumstances. By working to revise the child support guidelines we can bring forth equal obilgations on both parents, and work to stop the family holocust perpetuate throughout this country. aluding to parental alienation, Parental Alienation is the teaching of children of divorce or separation to harbor negative feelings and emotions toward the parent who generally does not have custody and does not reside in the same domicile. This is usually done in an effort for one parent to gain the respect and love of the children, while destroying the image and relationship of the absent parent. This phenomenon will generate feelings of hatred, ambivalence, and distance between children and the non-custodial parent. Our family court system does little to eliminate these occurrences, and although the parent affected is cheated of a normal relationship with the children, the real damage will manifest itself within the children. Thereby creating the bias circumstances of custodial noncustodial parents. Which creates a very unequal ratio in the determination made by the judge within the guidelines. What we propose through strong advocacy is, The redefining of a father's position in the family court by uitilizing the measures we have to revise the child support guidelines UNITY! IT IS OUR GOAL TO get at least 10,000 names to show our unity for REVISING THE CHILD SUPPORT GUIDELINES. After gathering adequate names we will present our petition to the federal courts for reviewing an the proposal of change in this area of the child support laws. THEREFORE REFORMING THE CHILD SUPPORT LAWS, causing equal justice across the board. Thank you for your support in this very important matter.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many people have come forward to share their own experiences. This momentum belongs entirely to you because I never imagined this conversation would grow this large. It is truly humbling to see so many of you standing up for what is right.

It needs to be equal 50/50 custody by default. Fathers are not just paychecks.

My husband deals with this every single day. His ex does everything she can to turn the kids against him. It is just cruel.

Finally someone is saying it. I have been paying for 5 years and lucky to see my son once a month. The system is broken and treats us all like criminals.
