Do you support the Father's Rights Movement?

28. I used to think that way but

I know people screwed by the system. The system is so saturated with failed relationships and dead beat parents it takes a lot of fighting to make it work for you. Often you "win" on paper but the family court process doesn't follow through with enforcement. I know a lot of fathers that wanted to be in their kids life but were denied the opportunity not by the law but the laziness of the law to be enforced. The mechanism seems in place to assume you are a dead beat and for lawyers to make maximum $ getting both parties in a divorce fighting and mad. It's a great environment to make a lot of money in the hate industry. The process generally leaves men and women vastly bitter and kids as tools to use between the parties. At least from my experience of people I know.

One could argue it is a failure at least in California to pay enough taxes into our family court system to make it work. You're talking about a lot of social workers that simply don't have the time and resources to properly evaluate situations. In the mean time you have divorce lawyers that know just how to play people to keep the divorce going long after it is over. It scares a lot of people out of thinking about marriage.
