Should Males Get The Rights To Their Kids?
I mean you see all these bullies in schools in the UK then ever before. One of the reasons being that single parents are bringing up their children. But that would all change if the father had the child as the father is the authority figure in a family and kids would learn discipline as opposed to care that doesnt work eaily and kids disobey their mothers and become thugs and gang members? So whats up with that?

Yeah... Dads are just awesome. 😐 🙁
To be honest, I really don't see how being raised by a single parent will turn kiddies into thugs and bullies, but whatever. But yeah, men should have equal rights where their children are concerned.

They should get a better go of it than they do at the moment.
I dunno much about custody stuff, but if folk feel they have to dress up as batman and climb up Buckingham Palace to get attention then something isn't right.
Discipline (sp) is rubbish in schools at the moment, kids are behaving worse. Families are breaking up more often. I reckon there is a link
I dunno whether Dads can do a better job than Mums.

Originally posted by AkuLOL! my mum is definately the authorative figure in our household. I dont think mums are any less qualified to give out discipline than fathers i think it just depends on the family. But I do think that fathers should be more able to have their kids living with them. I like the 50/50 idea but i think that all depends on the kid and the situation - every case needs to be viewed individually. The other thing is i think that if the mother breaks the visitation rights of the father there should be more action taken against her to prevent her doing it again (or the other way around if the kids living with dad).

as a single parent all I know is that my son is far better off without his mum.... everyone involved with him (even his mum!) has said that since his mum left us there has been a marked improvement in his behaviour, work, and everything... but that doesn't follow for everyone.. I think that two good loving parents is the best set up... but one good single parent is better than having to live with one good and one no good... and of course, some kids are better off without either of their natural parents...
Not sure if single parents are to blame for the bullies in the world. The most memorable bully from my school days way back came from a two parent family, so really.... But yes, I think men deserve greater access to their kids if they divorce, or at least better then now, and perhaps judges should be more open to granting custody to men if that man is the best option. Granted, the situation is improving but there are some ways to go. Rightfully the system should however seek to do best by the child, but I think mens rights and the child's welfare can be intertwined.
imo society paints women as being better parents by default, which is wrong. fathers should be given equal chances of winning custody, simple as that. the amount of good decent fathers who dont get to see their kids because some half assed court decided the mother was better without examining the case is a f*cking farce...
and its my biggest fear about having children. that if the mother and i ended things on bad terms i'd never see my kids... that'd kill me...

I personally think there needs to be a delicate balance.
But that rarely ever happens.
If the father is a good father, then yes, they should get rights to their kids.
If not, then no.
Simple.
Depends on the family, obviously. My friend's parents got a divorce when he was in third grade. He now lives with his dad, stepmother, and stepbrother and is at his mom's every other weekend or something. His mom is really ****ed up, and tbh I'm not entirely sure she even likes him. She "forgot" to buy him a Christmas present this year, even though he got her one. His dad on the other hand is a really nice guy, and his stepmom treats him more like a human than his real one. Now his stepbrother is the opposite, because his dad is the messed up one... Men should get equal consideration when it comes to this custody stuff.
