Tobias, thanks for your reply. You get it. I see it the same way. The family
court system is extremely flawed. Maybe their logic made sense hundreds of years
ago, but times have changed and now children need their fathers.

I'm sorry that this happened to you and to your child. (And of course it affects
the entire family.)

This scenario has similarities to mine. My son is 16 and he has major depressive
disorder. At the most recent court hearing, his grandmother told the judge "He
has threatened to kill himself if he's forced to see his father," and the judge
looked at me and said "With that being the case, do you still want to proceed
with your petition for custody?"
The judge seems to think that the child is in charge. With that logic, the child
can get anything he wants by threatening to kill himself. Maybe he wants a
helicopter and a million dollars, well, I guess we know how he can obtain those
things too! :)

That's a good point! Maybe there's a political motivation behind all this. Maybe
the courts want children to depend on the government, so that the government can
exert more control over them throughout their lives.
I hope that you get reunited with your daughter some day! Fathers are just as
important as mothers, and maybe even more important than mothers during the teen
years.
