Good news at last. Yesterday my lovely man saw this children in a contact centre for a couple of hours. They had a great time and it was clear that everyone's lies about his eldest not wanting to see him and being afraid of him were just that, evil and hurtful lies. If only Cafcass has observed him with his children for the S7 things may have been different, instead they wrote a scathing report saying his eldest was afraid of him and didn't want to see him and direct contact couldn't be recommended. They are evil evil people and I'm just glad we had a good barrister to sort this out. What pains me is Cafcass never have to answer for this, they are now out of the picture thankfully but the damage is done. Thanks to a legal system that allows women to make up truly horrible lies to get legal aid and Cafcass who back them up with no evidence, men amass huge financial and emotional debts just to see their children. It's all wrong and it needs fixing.
That's wonderful news Harli.....you're right of course, the system is flawed, but you and many others have proved that with the right advice and support a path back to the children can be found... are there financial and emotional costs...yes, but if you ask was it worth it, the answer would also be yes!
Brilliant! He is well on the road to building his relationship back up with his child now this is excellent news 🙂
I got treated in exactly the same way by CAFCASS, the system sucks if you're a Father but it can be beaten if you play your cards right 🙂
Great news. Glad to hear that things are going well Harli.21 . Most men do suffer and go through years of struggles to see their own children. I believe 'contact' is a journey ... sometimes having patience is important. As the saying goes... 'good things come to those that wait'.
Keep well.
Thanks guys, all the help and support we got here was invaluable too x
its been a long fight and the end of the tunnel looked impossible to reach. We aren't quite at the end, we have the next stage to overcome yet, ex won't like unsupervised contact and will pull out all the stops to prevent it I'm sure. But for now things are good and I'm just happy he finally has the solid proof that everything she and her evil family said about his children not wanting to see him was lies, they were thrilled to see him. I am waiting for the day that Cafcass are disbanded as unfit for purpose, they are soley responsible for my man not seeing his children for almost a year.
Really happy for you all for there are no winners or losers in the battle, everyone hurts. Wishing you the very best
