Absolutely mate. The laws in this country are a complete joke. Custody should be given to the most suitable parent, but it seems that the default position is to give the mother custody unless there are extraordinary circumstances, and even doing stuff like your ex-wife was doing doesn't seem extraordinary enough. But then the whole legal system is like that. They'll bend over backwards to protect the "rights" of the wrongdoer, yet they couldn't give a **** about the innocent party - in this case, your kids. :mad:

I think if social services did their jobs properly then things like this woudnt be happening so much..

I have been threatened with social services for taking my daughter out of school, and no doubt they will be knocking on my door at some stage.. all this will happen while the little girl living near me is getting beat by her mum every bloody day of the week.. been going on for years and nothing has been done about it :mad::mad::mad:

I've attempted it twice. The first attempt just left me with some pretty bad scars on my wrist. The second time I ended up just sleeping for an epically long time and then having the worst headache of my life ever for a long-ass time.

I'm glad now I didn't succeed. I have a good life, even with all my health problems.

Suicide is such a selfish thing. i have no respect for anyone that commits suicide. Its obvious that every single person has at least contemplated suicide, but e were all given life. And its up to us to live with it and deal with its annoyances and yeah, everyone sometimes feels helpless and completely alone, but its not true. every time you fall down into a deep hole like that, you can either keep digging or let it consume you. to live, you must be strong. and to make yourself strong you must love people and let them love you back, because its not about the things in life, but the PEOPLE in life, that get you through ****.
i was in eighth grade when one of my close friends hanged themselves. he was in obvious pain and loathed the world; you could see it in his eyes. if i could go back & change ANYTHING it would be to hang out with him every single day of my life to make him understand that i cared about him, but i was only thirteen, very stupid and too ignorant to even THINK that he would do something like that.
if anyone on here needs to talk about their problems, you can always message me. i never want to see someone get to that point again. its terrifying. your life is yours and you deserve it.

Reminds me of the joke.

A guy calls the police and tells them he believes there is an intruder on his property. The police tell him that they're too busy to send someone round right now. Five minutes later he calls back and tells them that it's OK - there was an intruder, but he's dealt with it himself. He's shot him. Within minutes several police cars show up, and hammer on his door, demanding to be let in. They search the place but find no body.

"I thought you said you'd shot him?" says the officer.

"I thought you said you were too busy to send someone round!" replies the man.

Wow.
Will you marry me?
LOL.
You sound so much like me its alarming.
I have several friends who took their own lives. So I know exactly what you are talking about. But I was with one of them all the way to the end. For almost a year I saw it coming. And I was doing what you said, constantly being his friend trying to help him. It did no good at all. Some people are living in a nightmare and no amount of ANYTHING will make them think that life is worth living.
I know because I have been there, and been with others there. I am not saying that I condone suicide at all, I DON'T!!!! But for those who have gone that way, and for those who feel like it, lets not call them weak.

Suicide isn't any more selfish than wanting to keep someone completely miserable with their life around just so YOU can feel better.
