Hi John, Iam sorry to hear about your predicament. Iam a believer of there is a light at the end of the tunnel somewhere.
Although my experiences haven't been the same as yours regarding lawyers'etc. It was difficult because Iam Partially sighted, different agencies attempted to take my kids as they thought I couldn't cope.When I proved them wrong, they tried a different tactic by saying it wasn't right a man raising 3 girls.So I got smart and read up on the law and threatened them with Discrimination Law (both Disability and Sex Discrimination) and after a while they backed down.Knowing I wasn't going to roll over and play to their tune. But as for keeping my head high it is difficult.So I keep myself busy by studying for a degree Iam 36 and using the knowledge gained to eventually get a job. If I can find one. To provide my kids with a better future than I have.I have accepted a volunteer teaching assistant post at my kids school starting in September.I do everything I can to keep myself focused on the future. If you get yourself registered PM me with more details.Then I can try to be more objective in my comments as I will have more detail to work with. Before I forget and be rude. Welcome to the group. Best wishes Mark |

This is my first time doing this sort of thing. I have not seen many letters from the U.K
I am a single dad of one boy who is 7. Being a single parent is hard work but the rewards are great. I use to be a builder by trade but had to take a look at my life and went down a different career path, one which my son is proud of his old man taking. I would not change this situation for the world. The only thing I find somtime is that it can be lonley. |

Welcome aboard Definition. I absolutely agree about the rewards. I've been blessed with seeing a huge turnaround in my daughter over the last several years. I got custody when she was 8, 11 now and she is doing so much better these days. Hoping it carries through the teenage years as well.
The loneliness, well what is there to say, here's to hoping that changes as well. In the meantime it beats being in a bad relationship anyday. |

welcome dblAfuel1,
Sounds like we are very much in the same boat, though you have a few more years in then me  . My daughter is 11 now. That and her deadbeat mom is only about 30 minutes away, so I have that headache to deal with. You speak the truth about the kids and the future. Sometimes I think more parents(single or not) need to keep that in mind. Don |
