Feminists

of misogynist males when they're angry at a woman. If one thing can be said about misogynists, it is that they never fail to blame everything, even their own bad behavior on females. They're like the right wingnuts that blame everything on President Obama, all the damage they did to this country, etc.

You must not have read my post. I said that generally custody is given, and not always, since not *always* is the mother an adequate parent. Madness and insanity comes in all colors, Yours might have been one of those cases, and it's clear you got custody. So what are you complaining about exactly? I'm not exactly sure what it is you're trying to say.

Support is legally binding. Support must be provided by parents to a child. Children do not survive on mere oxygen. They need air, water, food, shelter, clothing, medical support, lots of expenses related to schooling, gasoline to transport them back and forth, and myriad other things. Are you under the impression that after divorce or separation, the child can "make do" with half or less of what he/she needed before? When the (legally binding) child support is not provided, the law can, and does, and should punish that because it is survival to the child interpreted as dollars and cents, because children require money to survive. Does that mean the mother must buy 2 quarts of milk instead of a half gallon, and label one, "Johnny" and the other, "mom" to keep everything separate lest the ex-husband begin to have some sort of meth dream that she's "stealing" his child support money? Of course not. And yet that's what ex-husbands believe because they're livid, angry, and blinded by rage.

I don't know what your ex's mental problems were. You're the one that picked her out to spend your time with. However, to generalize your particular weird problems to the general population is wrong. Men are not discriminated when the mothers are given custody. The day men become the ones who take charge of the kids DURING the marriage, giving up work time, leisure time, and all kinds of things for the kids, well, hey, start re-considering custody. I've seen too many dads suddenly, during divorce, claim to be the world's most involved parents on the planet, start writing down the name of the doctor, of the teachers, of this, of that. Um, not exactly dude, you weren't involved before.
