      Or getting the kids after a divorce

      Evidence that men experience genuine bias in custody hearings when they pursue custody is basically nonexistent. There’s a persistent stereotype surrounding it, but it’s not actually one borne out of evidence.

        I was so fricken stressed five years ago when I got divorced because of all the noise. A year later I had full custody and I didn’t have to do anything other than be present for them and be willing to take on the full burden of their care, school, doctors, housing, meals, clothes, etc. Their mom eventually moved a long distance away a couple years later so they don’t get to see her much which kind of sucks but I wonder how many whiny ass fathers actually walk the walk vs flapping their jaw.
