Fear of being abused more?
a mother becomes abusive once she begins to harm her children, or put them in any sort of physical or emotional danger
The abusive mother would often castignate her children.
With court approval
Unless the stepfather has legally adopted the children, he has no built-in legal right to them.
yes because the mother needs to spend time with ther children. discipline then, learn about then, and nurchuring them the love of a mother is the must valuable. A child cant get a better love then from their mother. No afence Fathers but a Fathers love isn't even as neutering and loving as a mothers.
That is the wrong question. You are really asking: If I am the father of a child and the mother leaves the country with the child, do I have an obligation to help support the child financially? There may be situations where you should not feel obliged. But this is the question that needs answering. For that matter, it is the basic question even for fathers whose children have not left the country.
This isn't usual, but if the mother is neglectful or if her lover is abusive, the courts can transfer the children to the father. Courts are coming to recognize that the mother's lover is the person most likely to abuse her children.
Yes, but I teach fathers how to change that.
Children don't get to choose their guardians. The court will decide.
Many times a women alienate children from their fathers because they themselves do not wish to have contact with the father. Therefore; children get alienated due to an unintended consequence, but there are as many different answers to this questions as there are fathers alienated from their children. Unless there is abuse on the part of the man, the damage done to children who are alienated from their fathers is usually irreparable. It is extremely cruel to keep children from their fathers. Children need fathers as much as, and in some cases, more than children need their mothers. A father's positive influence cannot be bought for all the gold in Egypt. It is flat out child abuse for ANYONE to intentionally alienate children from their fathers. It can actually be a blessing for a mother to have a civil-productive relationship with the children's father. The mother can then have a much needed break from the children, financial support and the comfort of attending childrens activities without animosity. My sons father and I divorced when they were young and we got along beautifully while raising our children together and in close proximity. It was a positive influence that they witnessed their parents caring enough about THEM to get along with each other.
It is generally the mother that takes more interest in the children's education as far as helping with their children's homework, but some fathers may become involved as well. Mothers and fathers discuss their child's education as to whether their child will go to public school or private school and if their children are doing well in school then the parents will want to discuss with their children what college they may want to go too.
