Our children are better served by speaking not of visitation versus custody, but of parent time.

Self-help books for those who believe 'You can have it all' often advise, 'Follow your bliss and money will follow.' With the collapse of the stock markets the reality of trade-offs is more like, 'When you follow your bliss, it's money you'll miss.'

By the 1970s, the American woman was being called 'liberated' or 'superwoman' while the American man was being called 'baby killer' if he fought in Vietnam, 'traitor' if he protested, or 'apathetic' if he did neither. Even men who came home paraplegics were literally spit on.

It is important for a father who feels pushed away [by the mom] to say, in effect, When you do that, I feel unwanted as a father, or I feel my rough-housing is not bad parenting it's my contribution to helping our child take risks. Women cannot hear what men do not say.

The Government as Substitute Husband did for women what labor unions still have not accomplished for men. And men pay dues for labor unions the taxpayer pays the dues for feminism. Feminism and government soon become taxpayer-supported women's unions.
