Agony of the frozen-out fathers A new BBC series explores the reasons why fathers lose touch with their children post-separation. Cassandra Jardine investigates.

Watching a preview of next week’s BBC series Who Needs Fathers?, I felt ashamed to be a woman. The men on the programme appeared to be loving, attentive fathers – not extremists in Batman costumes. All they wanted was to play their part in the upbringing of their children. But, at every turn, it seemed, vengeful, short-sighted women were selfishly trying to thwart them.
These mothers cancelled contact arrangements, scuppered telephone calls, made false allegations of abuse, and prevented the men taking their children on holiday. “Honestly, I feel like throwing in the towel,” said one tearful father, who sat in his car outside his ex’s front door, waiting in vain for the children to come out. Only an emergency court order won him the day.

Where are our Rights??

A guy has 4 kids, plus one who he has brought up for 10 years. The mother has a history of drug and alcohol abuse, and also of going out for days and not coming home.

This has happened again, but only this time, the mothers sister has the kids and the father can do nothing about, as the mother was so sneaky as to not put his name on birth certificates.

Now where is the fairness in this??
