My dear brothers, My fellow fathers, today I say NO to limited visitation. Today I say NO to a court telling me when I can see my child. Change is coming and with your help, it will be a success. Men have been over run by the court system for over the last 30 years, treated as 2nd class citizens, we've been persecuted, incarcerated, humiliated and enough is enough. It is time.
What can you do my fellow Paladins? Stay true to the ancient law of the Templar, always do what is right, even if the cost is the greatest sacrifice that you may ever have to make. Words mean little in contrast to the action that can be brought forth from all of us united. For one cause, for one purpose, to ensure that Fathers, after divorce, get equal time to see their children.
Personally, I have been divorced for well over 5 years now. And everyday it is a constant struggle to co-parent, and to even have a civil conversation with my ex-spouse. She has a view of life that is inconsistent and changes as the wind blows. She is a "butterfly" caught in a wind storm.
My son, is my life. He is my beacon, through my darkest days, he is the holy grail of all that I could be and all that he can be. Never have I had a more loving and caring bond with another human being. In many ways, I am his hero, yet he is my hero too. He stands up for himself verbally, when he knows that he must fight the wrong. He also is a Paladin, he will fight for justice, honor, salvation and righteousness. In a few short years, he will become a modern day Templar by joining the Marine corps. I have done my best to instill in him every part of me that is good and I have shown him every part of me that I am ashamed of. I have explained to him to learn from my lessons of failure and inadequacy.
In the end, we must petition courts on a local level and through our State representatives to change this lopsided visitation schedule that some bureaucrat has created. This HAS to change. This WILL change. Today, I ask for your help, together, we will be an unstoppable force with our words and our actions in a peaceful and appropriate manner.
Do NOT accept what has been granted to you as the truth.
Do NOT accept what has been determined by your local court system.
Do NOT accept anything less than equal time with your sons or your daughters.
Do NOT accept what you have been told.
The struggle will continue and will be an ongoing battle but we will stay the day and have Godspeed behind us.
