PAGE-2.....FATHERS AND MASCULINITY....PART 2

I was watching a TV show on one of the secondary regular TV local stations (not cable) a show called
JUDGE GUNN (judgegunn.com), there was a young mother in drug court for doing "meth" before and
while she was pregnant, even though she was getting clean, she still had custody of her baby.
The judge asked her where the father was? she said she didn't know, probably in jail.  She also said that the father had also been using.  I found out later in the the program that the mother and her baby were able to go to a rehab/group-home for mothers and children.
The fact of the matter is there is help for men but as a father or a young father, where is there a place for us to go (if we wished) with our children if we had a problem? if there is I haven't heard of any and if there is it's very very few.
This is just one example out of many gender discrimination's that we as young, unwed-fathers, even married fathers have to endure. I never read in any of our laws that you had to get married if you have a child with someone, it would be nice, but we all know that some things don't work out.  For the unwed-father, the system seems to think that it's your fault, all they care about is that you pay childsupport, they don't care if you get to see your child, in some cases if you try to file for custody, they will try to find and make up any and every excuse to block you, simply because the mother doesn't want you to get custody.
All it takes in the majority of  the states is a  "domestic violence charge", that could be from simple arguing to
almost murder........ITS TIME TO LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD ! ! !

1.We want group homes for fathers and children

2. We want automatic joint custody for unwed-fathers, no being at the mercy of the mother or going to court
to file for initial visitation for our god-given rights

3.We want accountability of our childsupport payments, proof that our money is actually being spent on our
children

4.We want equal prison sentencing for the same crimes, we don't want to see another "Casey Anthony" go free.................................!
