The Meaning of Fatherhood
Comments (70)

The Ontario Superior Court’s decision to order a man to continue paying child support - even though he is not the biological father of his ex-wife’s twins - has renewed the debate over father’s rights in Canada. We talk to Judith Huddart, a Toronto lawyer specializing in family law, and Grant Wilson, whose organization opposes the judgment, about the implications of this week’s decision.

The video (about 10 minutes) and the comments that were sent in are accessible at http://www.cbc.ca/sunday/2009/01/011109_6.html

Some may wonder why I posted this item as belonging to the category of “Women’s Violence”, amongst others.  The reasons are simple.

(Update 2009 01 17 1:08 a.m.: The text following this note was posted as a comment to the article at the CBC website.  I received an acknowledgment stating that the comment had been received and thanking me for posting it.  Curiously, nine hours after my comment had been received by the CBC it had not yet been shown.  One would almost think that the comment shown below violates some unspecified speech code.  I wonder.)

It is an act of violence against a man to pretend that he is the natural father of children when he is not.

It is an act of violence against children to deny them to get to know and to be cared for by their natural father.

Grant Wilson said things very well, without identifying that a woman who conceived two children by a man she was not married to committed adultery.  On the other hand, Judith Huddard thought that to be quite normal and not necessarily malicious, as a woman who conceives a child by a man who is not her husband could easily have forgotten whom all she had sex with.

Going by what Judith Huddard stated, marital fidelity does not matter, but all that matters is that a man who has been fingered to be the natural father of two children should be held responsible to pay for the consequences of him being successfully duped.  By her reasoning, that is all that matters, as it is the right of the children to receive child support from a man who is not their father.  According to her, child support is paid to children and not to the children’s mothers.

I have got news for Judith Huddard.  The name of the mother of the children is on the child-support checks she receives.  Nowhere does it state what she must do with the money.  She can do with it what she wants, and she will not be held accountable for how she spends that money.

According to the judge in my own case, with respect to child support that I had to pay for children who had been abducted for eight years, the money for the child support arrears had to be paid to the mother, not to the children, because child support is the income of the mother.

Anne Coulter: “U.S. Military, Psycho Killers.”

Don’t you love that quote in the title of this posting, you liberal male-bashers?

Hold on and relax.  The article by Anne Coulter identified below is a glorious debunking of femprop and shows how the media spread femprop.

The article may be hard reading for some, but that fact is merely the reason why femprop can be made to work so easily and is eagerly swallowed by the gullible.

Anne Coulter illustrates that, rather than the US military producing masses of  “Psycho Killers”, it turns out that the soldiers returning from overseas deployment are ten times less likely to murder anyone than are their non-military peers.

Murder Spree by People Who Refuse to Ask For Directions

by Ann Coulter
Legal Affairs Correspondent,

In a front-page article on Jan. 2 of this year, The New York Times took a brief respite from its ongoing canonization of Barack Obama and returned to its series on violent crimes committed by returning GIs, or as I call it: “U.S. Military, Psycho Killers.”

The Treason Times’ banner series about Iraq and Afghanistan veterans accused of murder began in January last year but was quickly discontinued as readers noticed that the Times doggedly refused to provide any statistics comparing veteran murders with murders in any other group.

So they waited a year, hoping readers wouldn’t notice they were still including no relevant comparisons….(Full Story)
