This website is intended to serve two purposes:
1) To help those who are in crisis, newly separated from their children or faced with living in poverty, to get through the process.
2) For those past crisis, to help coordinate work on legislative reforms to support two parent involvement and reasonable support orders.
I remember reading a female writer who wrote in praise of blue collar men, and the world that we built. She is a lesbian, I have seen her stuff in mens' rights movement and I know she was published in Playboy. I want to call a friend's attention to her stuff, but I can't remember her name. If you think you know who I'm talking about, please dash me a note to otherweb@yahoo.com.
Thanks

Mike Weller refuses to be reduced to a “weekend dad” after his divorce, and a recent change in the law is likely to bolster his push to get equal custody of his sons. A bill approved today by Gov. Charlie Crist evens out the parental playing field, which has traditionally handed mothers primary custody in a divorce, leaving fathers with little say.
“Children with two parents who actively and positively engage in their life by providing financial support, love, guidance and discipline, have a greater chance for success than children who receive an active involvement from only one parent” – Iowa Governor Thomas J. Vilsack, 2001.
Money is the root of all evil, and no one knows this better than a divorced father. When a father is summoned to the divorce court, he quickly learns that money is all his wife and the court are interested in. There's another applicable old saying: "You get what you pay for." Because of changes in the divorce laws, such as the application of "no-fault" divorce, which makes a divorce easy to obtain, and government incentives to do so, our divorce rate has skyrocketed. Fueled by feminist angst against men in general, our government has instituted laws which make divorce attractive for women.
The importance of a father figure in children's lives has been demonstrated by a new study of families with separated parents in Bristol.
After looking at couples who had split up, researchers found there was a direct relationship between their children's behavioural problems and the amount of contact they had with their natural father, and the quality of the relationship between father and child.
