UK Feminazi Mums Who Cut Fathers Out: One In Three Say Dad Is Disposable And Should Not Have Say In Their Child's Upbringing +

By Steve Doughty: One in three separated mothers think their children’s fathers should have no say in their upbringing, according to a report yesterday.
It found that 32 per cent of separated mothers thought that they alone had the right to make decisions about their children’s future.
The high proportion found by a survey implies that more than one in 10 of all the families in the country include mothers who do not want the fathers of their children to have a say over the future of their children.
The findings were revealed in a survey carried out for the counselling group Relate.
It comes at a time of deepening concern among judges and education experts over the absence of fathers from the lives of millions of youngsters.

Concerns over the way so called ‘deadbeat dads’ have gone missing (been ejected) from their children’s lives have been at the forefront of public concern for nearly 25 years.
The Child Support Agency was set up in the early 1990s to try to force absent fathers at least to pay for the children they had abandoned.
But the figure for mothers unveiled by Relate was more than double the number of men who believed that one parent from a separated or divorced couples should be able to decide alone how to raise the children.
Worries over mothers who want to exile separated fathers from their children’s lives have been coming to the fore in recent months, notably in two prominent High Court cases in which judges questioned why mothers had been allowed to prevent fathers from taking a role with their children.

The Relate study was based on a YouGov survey taken among more than 1,500 people which asked parents about how they regarded their separation.
Six out of 10 thought a family break-up was always a bad thing and just over half of separated parents acknowledged that the split had had a negative impact on their children.

But the continued bitterness between mothers and fathers, and the wish of many mothers to cut fathers out of their children’s lives, was laid bare in questions about how parents should cope with separation.
‘One notable difference was in attitudes between the separated mothers and fathers we asked on who should make decisions about children’s futures,’ the report said.
‘Here, 68 per cent of separated mothers said both parents should make decisions together about children’s futures, compared to 85 per cent of fathers.’

Research: 32 per cent of separated mothers feel they can better handle problems as a single parent

Relate estimates that a third of all British families have been through a parental break-up, so on the counselling group’s reckoning around one in nine of all families are led by a mother who wants to keep the father out of decision-making.
Family courts trying to help warring couples re-arrange their lives have long struggled with the difficulty of dealing with intransigent mothers.
Judges are reluctant to punish children further by sending mothers to prison.
At one stage Labour ministers tried to get around the problem with a plan to make mothers who disobey court orders obey curfews and wear electronic tags.
But the finding follows strong remarks from judges in recent cases over the way mothers are sometimes allowed to exile fathers from their children’s lives.
Last month High Court judge Mrs Justice Parker set down a judgement that warned social workers: ‘Parents who obstruct the relationship with either mother or father are inflicting untold damage on their children and it is about time the professionals truly understood this.’

In another case Appeal Judge Lord Justice McFarlane condemned family courts that had prevented a father from having regular contact with his daughter for 12 years because ‘the mother appears to want an unhealthy exclusive relationship’ with her daughter.
In October Sir Michael Wilshaw, the chief inspector of schools and social care, warned against the alienation of fathers from their families, saying: ‘Children are abused because their biological parents were long ago alienated from each other and the new man in the house - often the latest in a succession of men - is violent and resentful.’
Relate said separating parents should try to communicate with each other, even if there is tension over one having a new relationship.
Chief Executive Ruth Sutherland said: ‘The one thing everyone can be sure of is that it’s the wellbeing of children which is of paramount importance here - so finding ways to work together as parents in the best interests of our children is vital.’
Harry Benson of the Marriage Foundation think tank said: ‘Fathers must have a role in their children’s lives. Teenagers are much more likely to go off the rails if their fathers are not part of their lives.
‘The problem is that it is very, very difficult when parents split up. There is no such thing as a good divorce.’

‘Gender Feminism – The Approaching Crisis’

By Mike Buchanan: A young gender feminist blogger, Ellie Slee, recently wrote a blog piece containing a false allegation about J4MB. It was published by The Huffington Post. I politely pointed out to her that the allegation was demonstrably false, but as I’d anticipated - because she’s a gender feminist - she was willing to neither retract the statement, nor apologise for it. I contacted the legal team at AOL – HuffPo‘s parent company – and the offending allegation was swiftly retracted.

Impressed by the professionalism with which the matter had been handled – given HuffPo‘s business model, I feel confident they weren’t aware of the misleading statement in advance of publication – I was intrigued to get a call from a supporter suggesting I offer blog pieces to HuffPo. It’s well-known for being left-leaning so I doubted they’d publish any pieces from me, but I got in touch anyway. The lady there was very polite, and asked me to submit a piece for consideration. I duly submitted an 800-word piece, as requested. Like all short articles, it took a surprisingly long time to write. It takes so much less time to write a long article.

I then had an exchange of emails with the polite lady, and it soon became evident that the changes she required to make it acceptable for publication by HuffPo were such that I wouldn’t be prepared to put my name to the piece. But having spent time writing it, I thought the least I should do was publish it elsewhere. So here it is, modified only with an expanded ‘author biography’:
