Blahr 0 #2 August 26, 2003 As a divorced father of 2 boys, I am one of the lucky ones. I pay my support on time every time, the amount of which which was decided upon through open discussion with my ex-wife based on the boys needs rather than assigned by the courts. We agreed to joint custody as a part of our divorce agreement, and we have a decent relationship where our primary concern is the welfare of our sons. I cant imagine what it would be like if my ex was all hateful and angry and tried to use our children as a weapon against me like so many people do. I have to agree that the arbitrary assumption that all children should reside with the mother is silly and archaic and needs to be reviewed. Its ancient history. Its INCREDIBLY unfair to the fathers AND the children. Not all mothers have the best interest of their children in mind. These decisions should be made on a case by case basis if the parents cant come to an agreement of their own. This is the 21st century. Plenty of folks still use violence to make their point. Unfortunately, the only point they make is that they are fools. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
