Abbie Dorn, paralyzed and brain damaged as a result of the birth of her triplets in 2006 was being alienated from her now 4 years old children. The father believed that seeing the mother would traumatize them. This is about a parent's rights, and a fight against the jaws of parental alienation that has bitten many mothers, though far more fathers, around the country.

A court decision on Friday, March 25 of 2011 has guaranteed that this will not continue.

As a father's rights educator, I am glad to see this happen for this mother, but I pray that the courts will also address similar cases where the father is disable and being denied access. Their cases never get media attention. I live in a nursing home and have seen a number of cases where disable fathers are not allowed to see their children by mothers who feel it is unhealthy, and with the agreement of the courts.

Further, over 40% of perfectly healthy fathers are annually denied access to their children, yet there is no national outrage over that.

During the last two Fathers Day addresses, President Obama blamed fathers for fatherless children, yet there is no fully funded by the federal government to enforce these court orders like there is for Child Support.  For the last two generations, little girls are being raised with the idea that fathers are unnecessary in the lives of children, and little boys are taught they unimportant except for what they can pay in child support.

Only 11% of child support obligors refuse to pay child support, often due to being denied access to their children, but also in growing numbers learning there are not the fathers of the children they are supporting. Since 85% of crime is tied to those raised fatherless, and crime cost tax payers far more than all the child support ever ordered to be paid, is it not the time to treat this issue with the same resolve and respect?

Sign this petition and demand that access rights be treated with the same importance. Further, that children deserve access to both parents (provided there are no “proven” problems of abuse), that our media pay greater attention to this problem, and that our government needs to do something about this.
