Like you, I know the pain of going through a custody battle.  Standing in front of a judge and having to explain what makes you capable of taking care of your own child.  I’ve had to sit in the offices of lawyers, police officers, mediators, Guardian Ad Litems, and others and explain my case for wanting to have a relationship with my child due to the fact that I was attempting to co-parent with someone who wouldn’t spit on me if I caught on fire.   I have been through it all. I have been lied on, persecuted, threatened, and emotionally broken simply because I refused to give up on having a relationship with my daughter. I had to fight just to be able to spend time with my child every second and forth weekend of each month.  Can you imagine how it feels to be unjustly accused of child abuse by the mother of your child? How about standing in a courtroom and listening to your child’s mother tell a judge why she doesn’t want your child to spend part of the summer with you?  I’ve been there bro! I’m sure that you have just as many custody/visitation horror stories as I do, if not more.  One of the most important things that I have learned in my 10 years as a parent is that no matter what obstacles we are faced with, regardless of how hard it may seem  there is NOTHING in this world that is more important than what we have been called to do as fathers.

I’m sure you probably think that I should just mind my own business because I have no idea what I am talking about, and you are partially correct.  I don’t know everything that has happened between you and your son over the last few years, or where your relationship became damaged. I don’t know the struggles that come with trying to manage a schedule as busy as yours, and still find a way to balance things at home.  The fact of the matter is that outside of what I know of you through the media I actually don’t know much about you at all.
