I am going through very difficult time trying to get access to see my son and at the same time I have been asked to pay a large amount of money to my ex by CMS. I am now very aware of how unfair the system is and the way fathers are treated and because of this I am asking for a helping hand in trying to achieve equal rights for both parents. Together we can change things so Please sign the petition.

Reading through your messages has shown me just how many fathers are being pushed into a corner by this broken system. I am currently working on organizing our next steps to ensure the right people finally have to listen to these experiences.

Seeing this kind of momentum brings me a lot of hope for my son and me. It is deeply moving to know so many other people understand the pain of this broken system.

Want cms to look at things in a fairer way. It's all against fathers. I'm left with a monthly bill from cms that leaves me with no money

the law has to uphold a fathers right to see his children, if not, if they uphold a mothers right it is not only sexist but direct discrimination.

I havnt seen my son for 11 years now, and have had no parental rights since his birth in 2003 September, according to the law I have no parental rights toward my child whatso ever because me and my partner wasn't married, I find this absolutely disgusting as I have no responsibility over his well being or anything, but I'm still responsible to pay for him, after 11 hrs years of court and solicitors fees, I'm still no further ahead than when I started! A very poor way of life, a string of shattered lives from my family and my self, and 11 hard years Im ready to commit but I just carry on now with my broken and shitty life! This is uk government, bent as a ten bob note! Fuck you justice system and csa/csm! Fuck you up you're stupid fuckin arses!
