No contact order is what i got apart from am aloud to post b day card so its official its all over now and now i begin the painful long wait hoping my child finds me i feel like someone took my heart out thanks for all support on here fir last year for anyone who posted to me the family law system needs to change and cafcass n social needs to be removed
homeland,, im so sorry what the [censored] went wrong at your final hearing,? this is wrong
Homeland, reading your post was heart wrenching, and i feel for you
I’m in a situation where Cafcass recommend ‘no contact’ following a Section 7 report , although the Section 37 recommendation was that I have contact
The Cafcass officer took all on board what my ex said, and my eldest son who was 10 when spoken to
The social worker who is the author of the section 37 stated in her report that she believes some of the things my son said were scripted and rehearsed and he told her his mum had bribed him with gifts to speak negatively of me
Some of the things were untrue and seems so unfair- and I have a fact finding hearing next week
One of ways I’ve got through this, almost two years later is to gear myself up to the possibility that I may get a ‘no contact’ order following this process- a process which seems so unfair and biased
On the other hand, and I’ve seen other say this, is that whatever the outcome in the court, I still feel I’ve lost, I don’t think that my relationship with my children will ever be the same regardless
It may well be that I will have to wait until they can see the world as adults
Keep your chin up

It made me so sad reading this. Things have to change, everything is made too easy for these evil women who want to remove their children’s father from their Iives. It’s all wrong and yet it continues.
I'm incredibly sorry to hear this John, you stuck at it and took everything that was thrown at you, your child may not understand the lengths that you went to to stay in their life, but if they did, they would be proud of you.
I sincerely hope that when your child is old enough they will find you, in the meantime it might help you to start a keepsake box to give to them when the time comes, to show them that they were always a part of you and always will be.
Take care John and hold your head up...you did everything you could.
All the best
