Well for all of you out there..I have read and read over EVERYTHING..and have emailed Chris back and forth..and I now see things through his eyes..and stand by him 110%!!! I took alot of anger out because of my daughters situation with her father..how he takes no part in her life..and I let it get the best of me. I know all the facts now and have talked to Chris..I honestly admire him from what he is doing for his son!!!! I wish Peytons father would take part in her life as Chris is fighting for his sons. My heart goes out to Chris and wish him the best in this. I have offered to help Chris in any way that I can..even will put a sign in my yard. Thank Chris for helping me see the light and being so understanding!! You have been a great friend and you are a father everyone admires! If you need anything you know how to get in touch with me!!!!!

Chris, my sister and my nephew lived in utter hell for several years because of a judge in Morgan County. Judges play god way too much with kids' lives. You and your family are in my prayers.

Chris, I feel for you. I found your site via Glenn Sacks; I'm a regular reader of his site. But I want to say that being a firefighter is part of the problem. This is no longer 1956. The citizens of the US no longer deserve chivalrous men like yourself because the US has repaid such people like you by taking their kids away. The only men the US rewards are gadabouts and screw ups. Men need to go on strike. We need to stop putting out fires -- figurative and literally. We need to stop helping women do anything, from starting their cars to fixing their drains. I have started this myself. When women realize what a world is like without men, then they will help fix the broken judicial system. Why would we need women to fix it? Because it was feminists to begin with who broke it. I hope you can get your kid back. But I warn all US men NOT TO HAVE KIDS IN THIS COUNTRY. When you get him back, there will be a whole new rash of problems dealing with the feminist education system.

I have seen the affects of what one of Judge Little's rulings does to a father and his sons. My heart goes out to you and your son. Every child should have the relationship with both parents, even if the parents are divorced. But most women are vindictive and use the legal system as a way to get back at their ex-husband at the cost to the child. Tell the lies to get their way. These women just get by with a slap on the wrist..and told "don't do it again". The whole scene is called "parent alienation", and the family judical system needs to get it under control. Everyone needs to work around what is in the best interest of the child. But the child is what gets lost in family court. I hope everything works out for you, but honestly until everyone puts the childs best interest first and fore most, the child is the biggest loser in these situations.

My judge is Judge Michael Thiele in Genesee County Michigan. I have posted your sign and a link to your website at: http://www.crazyexwivesclub.com/the-legal-system/ I hope it's o.k., but I'd like to help you get the word out.

I am so sorry, Chris. I am going through a situation that is almost the opposite of yours. I would like to link my website to yours if that is o.k. with you. Please check out my story at www.crazyexwivesclub.com. It is new and I would like men to tell their stories there. I believe we are all being discriminated against because we are men and we need to find a way to unite. No one will hear our stories and our children are the ones who are suffering. If there is a way for me to sell your signs on my website and get the profits to you, please let me know how. Thanks, good luck and God Bless.

Chris, I can not give my real name because I am in a situation very simliar to yours. I am a father that very much loves his son and does everything he can to be there for him. His mother is living her life in a manner that is not suitable for an 8 year old. (partying ever night, driving under the influence, she has been arrested for public intoxication and resisting arrest and it gets worse from there) I finally got the custody changed from the standard visitation to split custody (week to week) after thousands of dollars spent on attorney fees and court cost, and we still do not have a final ruling yet or have I had my day in court. The week he is with his mother she usually just dumps him off on someone and refuses for him to be with me and my family, which makes it extremely on him for school work, and extrcircular activities (baseball,basketball and or football). The problem is not with just with Judge Little, I have had worse problems with Judge Bruce Williams. It is the state of Alabama that refuses to allow the father's the same rights as a mother. If we lived in the state of Tennessee we would not be having the problem that we are having.

I think we all (judges,parents,grand parents,friends and neighbors) sometimes lose focus on what is REALLY best for the child. I agree with Mr. Graham that your son does not want his name and face on your car, website or anywhere else it wouldn't normally be. Kids want to be normal, you are not providing him that chance. They also want their Mother and Father to get along (much work on both parts, been there still working!). The other "normal" thing they want is to be able to Love both Mother and Father. And do not want to hear anyone speak bad of either. So often divorce makes a child pick a side. That's wrong! They didn't ask for this! And I'll bet didn't want any part of it if asked. If you both care about that child you have a common ground to work from. It will take sacrifice on both sides. Example..... Your son does not want to meet Moms new boyfriend or Dads new girlfriend at HIS baseball game or anywhere else where HE will have to explain to his friends or their parents who this person is. Remember.....it's for him, not a display for you! It's really hard, but you must get over the hate and see things through his eyes! I'm not really all that bright. I just have a really smart kid. I've learned from listening. Quote from my son to me at age 6, crying he said to me " how would you feel if I hated your mother". OMG, that's Granny your talking about I said! As I thought about that I relized he was right! That was my mother he was talking about and I didn't like it. That 6 year old set me on the right track! I now see through his eyes. On to Judge Little. I don't think it's as much Judge Little as it is Alabama Law. What you describe is pretty much normal in Alabama. The Dad is never considered unless there is no Mother. That's not really Judge Little's fault. It's a mentality thing that must be changed. Some Dad's are worthy! Boys and Girls alike need their Dad's, now more than ever! Sorry to get carried away! My buttons were pushed!

Wow!! I saw your sign a few days ago going down the road and thought I would see what this was about...So sorry for you. A child does need both parents. Judge Little may be a good man with good morals (as Amanda said ) but even good men with high morals would see the wrong in this and correct it. Hang in there!! I admire your courage in reaching out and letting the public be aware of what is going on...

Me and my daughter have recently moved to Alabama from Virginia (about a year and a half now). I was a single mother at the age of 20 and her father had no interest in being a part of her life. Without a lot of detail, it was for the best. I spent the first three years of her life in and out of every courtroom trying to get child support. Since he did not work the judge ordered him to pay 20% of what he could make off of minimum wage. I was ordered to support 80% of her basic needs. Since the ruling she is now five years old and I have received only nine support checks for less than $100.00. At the end of 2007 he owed me more than $6,000.00; unfortunately he died one year ago yesterday. I will never be able to collect the back support he owed and now I get $140.00 a month for my daughter's survival benefits, if you can call that survival. I feel your frustration, concern and heartache; I am with you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. We live right down the street from you and every morning I drive down Ryland and see your sign. Make more and make them bigger, expose those money hungry ba#$%^ds!! More power to you and your family. GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!
