    How self righteous is that?
    If the OP was a woman you would never have said that!!!
    The amount of women that post here slating their ex-husbands to the ground is unbelievable.......as soon as a bloke posts, its not acceptable.

    Try winding your neck in love.

    Lets get things straight, my name isn't 'love'. As for my comment, Anyone can come on this forum and spout how hard done by they are by their bleep bleep bleep ex's.

    Fact is, I can't remember seeing a comment from a woman (pwc or nrp) that spurts out such anger, but we often see it from NRP's who are forced to pay against their wills. Such as with the OP

    I am sorry to the OP, its nothing personal in my reflections of the content of your post, but your anger is loud and clear and I said that it isn't what this forum is all about, however, people like woody and others thrive on debates and PWC bashing, so perhaps you're doing him a favour, keeping him from being too bored with life.

    To be honest, if the situation with your ex and her drinking is that bad, the children would be better off with you and I would wish you well in that. (I just went to a funeral of a man who drank himself to death, leaving 2 young teenagers behind) and a widow glad to see the back of him.

    Someone made the comment about simply folding the company and starting up a new one. Good one. Lets all find ways to make sure we can avoid paying child support. U*n*b*e*l*i*e*v*a*b*l*e!

    Ill reply in bul

    As for helping the alcoholic ex, are you for real, she does not want help and as for being angry with her, yes I am, I worship the ground she is going in. Im not a million miles away from winning custody anyway, if you want to defend a drug taking, alcoholic child neglector (child neglect is a form of child abuse by the way) then your no better than them. my children have a loving family (on my side of the fence) and want for nothing, they get everything and they would never go hungry cos I got the social services watching that ***** like a hawk. She not on here to defend herself too busy taking drugs thats why.

    I am not defending your ex -wife, I am thinking about your children. They probably love you both equally despite any flaws you might have. It sounds as if they will be better off with you and your wife.
    You come across as very angry. I hope this isn't affecting the children.
    Good luck with getting custody.
    One life.

    I understand the difficulties. It's not easy for a man to gain custody, believe me my husband has tried with his pot smoking ex, even to the point of having social services involved. Unless you have a fortune to spend on solicitors and investigations you will struggle. I hope OP that you do manage to win custody and your children are happy. In the meantime I would definitely put some money away in trust for the kids as it sounds like their mum won't be able to help them out with university, moving out etc.

    It's always strange as well that these PWC must have seemed normal and a nice person.....nice enough for the NRP to have a relationship and children with them anyway

    And yet when the relationship ends they turn into these women who are *drug taking/alcoholics/ child abusers/contact blockers/out and out nutters (delete as appropriate *)

    Maybe it's the relationship that has turned them into this (thus assuming half the stories on here we read are true anyway)

    Normal to nutter and it's a relationship with an NRP that seems to do it

    Hmmmm....interesting!!;)

    Not really considering who it was from. Par for the course I would say
