5.0 out of 5 stars Thought provoking, saddening and deeply emotional read for a mother who's ex stopped seeing his children for no reason, 29 Sep 2007

By	Deldee "starshape" (UK) - See all my reviews

I read this book whilst awaiting the birth of my son, to a man who had a nervous breakdown because his ex wanted to move his child to scotland,500 miles away from where we and she lived, to reduce his access from alternate weekends, and half of all school holidays to 4 weeks a year! As a woman and a mother I am disgusted the courts allow anyone to have the power to get a parent out of a child's life..... The courts didn't even seem to mind she moved a new partner in on the afternoon, my husband left! He was accused in court of being a "passive father" as he obviously didn't go and take his daughter away from what the courts documented as his ex having "mentally abusive relationship with her child" with a woman who had questionable morals. But as you will read in this book...he never stood a chance against the "private family courts". His barrister told him "one day your daughter will vote with her feet" ....on the day the judge ruled his daughter was allowed to be taken up to scotland, she was 9 at the time. The ex got remarried, had another affair and moved the next partner in 3 days after her second husband moved out...but we are not allowed to comment on this or the psychological effect it has on the child! My husband got 6 weeks contact a year and his ex was to pay for flights down to see us.....has she???? occasionally when her life is going good,or after a barrage of solicitors letters, we don't pay much child support as he ended up on benefit so her attitude is "no pay, no see" unless we pay.... she uses her child in a donkey and carrot scenerio...to make him comply. My other deep sadness is my ex stopped seeing my three children around the same time as all the above happened and I know how hard it is to watch your children cry for a man who exits their life for no reason. I hate my ex for this and this alone. As he is the only other person in the world who should want to love and protect "our" children as much as I do...and he is hurting them in a way I can't protect them from....and as their mother I want to.
This book highlights just how badly "good" parents can be treated, the law should make contact a HUMAN RIGHT... for the child and the absent parent unless there are "PROVEN" abuse reasons, for there not being. We were members of F4J and I saw the deep sadness of many men who were fighting just to be part of their children's lives by a small minority of women who wanted control...and the manipulation game they play to get what they want.....
NO BAD PARENT would comply so much to see his child as David Chick and many other parents do...if they did not want to be part of that child's life...they have 2 choices: to fight or walk away...David and my husband chose to fight to be a Dad to the children they love, and for that they pay the price...Our society should value the parents who take their parental responsiblities seriously and support them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Insight into the secret courts..., 16 Sep 2007

By	plymouth Dad. (uk) - See all my reviews

I've read Denied Access and I've also read Family Court Hell by Mark Harris. In Dave Chick's Denied Access you get a picture of how the process is just tilted away from the father if Mum does n't want him around. In Family Court Hell you see so plainly how the process is totally corrupted against the father if mother does not want to comply with court orders.

Both books are good, but in Family Court Hell Harris' case went the full circle; when the kids got old enough to take the judges (and the mother) on, they immediately won. Denied Access is almost like an unfinished story, you wonder what's happening now with Dave & his daughter. In Family Court Hell the whole sick torture the Dad was put through turned out well. A must read though, both of these.

4.0 out of 5 stars That time wounds all heels, 18 Sep 2007

By	Ian Wood, Author of 'Here's 2 Absent Fathers' - See all my reviews

This is the heart rendering story of Dave Chick who was denied access to his daughter after been found guilty of violent and threatening conduct on the basis of probability.

Once contact is stopped through unjust accusations the courts must decide can it be in the best interests of the child to start it again. Dave thought so and scaled a series of cranes dressed as Spiderman to highlight his case and that of the fathers' rights movement.

Dave's story takes us from the family courts, up a near by crane and ends with a nomination for the Channel 4 Political contribution award 2003, it proves that one man can make a difference. I can't help but think Robert Bruce would have been equally inspired by Dave's story as he was his own spider.

Every father owes a debt of gratitude to Dave Chick for his high profile high wire protests. Spiderman, Spiderman, goes anywhere a spider without a restraining order against it can.
