Proof: Dads Are Equal

Written by Lee Doyle on August 12, 2008 – 8:42 pm

This is a LONG read but it is well worth it. If you cant read it all please read just part of it.

Sadly a friend of mind found out this quote a few days ago:

The research, which clearly illustrates how a father biologically responds to the birth of his children, also explains why thousands of men become clinically depressed when separated from their children to the point of actually committing suicide.

Fathers 4 Justice

By Joel Leyden
Israel News Agency
Jerusalem —-June 3 ..
LINK….

It was not easy writing the above headline. But when Psychology Today, one of the most respected lay journals on clinical psychology releases research illustrating that fathers are empowered biologically no differently than women when it comes to nurturing children, all keywords are needed.

The Psychological Today story: The Making of a Modern Dad, by Douglas Carlton Abrams illustrates in vivid, scientific detail how fathers are no different in their biological programming than mothers when raising children. That divorced dads who “feel” a need to be with their children, is not only an emotional reaction but a biological one as well.
This evidence hits hard at social workers, family court judges and elected legislators who abide by archaic research and outdated laws which state that it is in the best interest of the child to be with the divorced mother - not the divorced father.
“Here is the first hard evidence that men are biologically prepared for fatherhood,” says Psychology Today. “In fact, this is the first evidence that to nurture is part of man’s nature.”
This medical evidence would explain why father’s rights groups such as Fathers 4 Justice in England, the US, Italy and in Israel would risk getting arrested in their high profile protests to see their children with equal access.
The research, which clearly illustrates how a father biologically responds to the birth of his children, also explains why thousands of men become clinically depressed when separated from their children to the point of actually committing suicide.
Perhaps the 1979 Dustin Hoffman movie Kramer Vs. Kramer was society’s first major wake up call that dads were no different in wanting to care and protect their children. Years passed since the making of that landmark film where hundreds of thousands of caring, loving and responsible dads were separated from their children by narcissistic mothers, social workers and family court judges.
These city appointed social workers and family court judges who believed that it was best for the children to be with their mothers were totally unaware of the devastating effects of their actions. Rather than encouraging the dads to be dads, they alienated an entire generation of fathers who simply gave up in trying to fight the system. Perverted governmental systems which supported the few moms (most mothers encourage unlimited or equal contact) who used their small children as potent emotional weapons against their former husbands as the national and local governments practiced gender bias discrimination.

“Here is the first hard evidence that men are biologically prepared for fatherhood,” says Psychology Today. “In fact, this is the first evidence that to nurture is part of man’s nature.” Read more »

NATIONAL FATHERLESS DAY RALLY

Written by Lee Doyle on March 19, 2008 – 11:13 pm

FATHERLESS DAY

As many of my readers know I am a member of Fathers-4-Justice. The past week I have been talking to a member of F4J-US and he told me about this idea he has. I think its amazing as it is not just for all of us Fathers but for everyone. Many children these days grow up in single family homes and many feel that they never get to know their fathers. Many grow up thinking that their father may not love or even care for them… This may be the case for many… But what many people do not know is in many countries Fathers are pushed out of the family home by mothers and authorities. It is much more easy to just push the father out then to work on having BOTH parents help in looking after the child… I feel this is unfair and I am sick of hearing the same story time and time again from loving fathers who phone me crying and email me with the same stories but different names.

This event is NOT just for fathers! We need to change peoples views and we all need to do it together… Not just for ourselves but for our children and our children’s children.

If you have ever known someone who has been effected by a fatherless home please help with this. Even if it is just displaying a badge showing your support or actually joining the cause… Everything helps.

On June the 13th is Fatherless Day and in many city’s and towns around the US and maybe the UK (And more) there will be rallies organised by fellow F4J members. Please show all your support.

Don’t let the bad Dads effect us, we want to be fathers…

To show your support please display this badge. You can link here or to the www.fathers-4-justice.us
