I’m sure some do try and find it difficult, this is not everyone’s experience. Someone commented suggesting he’s tried but she said no, doesn’t suggest he’s had these struggles. Most women want the support and help of the other parent and it’s only too common that children grow up without support of the other parent through no fault of the mother, I find this disgraceful. I actually agree with women denying access and making sure it’s through the court system when they have been absent for many years and just ‘show up’ out the blue and suddenly want to be involved, after many years of absence both you and your child don’t know this person anymore and I would not allow a stranger essentially unrestricted access to my child.
I don’t want to derail too much, but I highly doubt for the average women if the father of the child attempted to have consistent contact with his child from birth and support that child they would deny them access let alone make them go through court. There is always the exception but to paint a lot of mothers like this when there is absolutely no evidence they have purposefully denied access for no reason (if at all) is very common and a way to degrade them, which I find disgusting. It boggles my mind that people can in one hand slate everything Mia is trying to do for her child good or bad/but stick up for someone who does absolutely nothing!
