Looking for a list of child abuse and child neglect laws and statutes in your state?

Look no futher!  Here is a wonderful resource for those of you that are putting together legal documentation on someone who is involved in child abuse or child neglect.  No matter what state you are in, you can check out this state statute lookup resource by ChildWelfare.gov--it is a great way to get the exact statutes and laws that protect children as far as who can report child abuse, what records can be made available for those investigating child abuse reports, etcetera.  Pass it on to anyone you might know who may need this for their pro se legal battles!

Also, there will soon be a new eBook from the National Brotherhood of Fathers' Rights--"A Fathers' Rights Guide to False Allegations of Abuse," which will cover the dos and don't's when falsely accused of child abuse, domestic abuse, or neglect.  It will be avialable soon through fathershelphotline.com!

Custody Hurts the Grandparents, Too!

There was an article posted on The Observer in regards to a recent article about fathers' rights.  One woman posted a quick recap of her issues with her son's inability to get custody of his own son:



Last week, I received a telephone call from a policewoman threatening me with arrest. My crime? Sending three cards to my grandson telling him I love him. He had his third birthday last week and as my son's former partner will not allow me to see him I put birthday wishes in our local newspaper. My son is fighting through the family courts to regain the access he had with his son until March this year but he still is not seeing his little boy.
My son's ex-partner saw my cards as harassment. Don't you think the police have more important things to do than threaten a 67-year-old grandmother?
Sad, but true--situations like this happen all the time.
