We have a huge announcement that we will be making with in the next 4 weeks. As soon as we know we can release the information we will certainly do so. It could be as soon as tomorrow or as long as 4 weeks. Sorry we can not mention the specifics yet! This is not intentional by any means. There are some exciting things brewing with A Child's Right www.achildsright.net This announcement has nothing to do with politics, the bike ride, etc.
On some different notes:
1) I am organizing a meeting in Lansing, MI and it will be held in March. I will have the exact date very soon. This meeting is for step-mothers, non-custodial mothers, grandmothers, etc. Various things will be discussed including the promotion of Robert's bicycle trek from Lansing, MI to Washington, D.C. Robert will be doing this 600+ mile trip with Rob McKenzie. I put some "feelers" out for a meeting such as this and the response was huge. We will have lunch served and there will be a few door prizes.
Keep in mind that when a divorce happens and a child is forced to only see his or her father (most cases) only 4-6 days a month it is devastating in ways that they typically can not communicate. 50% of the child's family tree is now forced to see less of the child affected like this. Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, and so many more are no longer given the proper time to interact with the child. This child is denied the right to the love, nurturing and family sense of security b/c of a vindictive ex. Unless if a parent has been found to be legally unfit, I do not see how the custodial parent could ever deny a child of this type of love. I would not be able to live with myself.
I know that some vindictive exs try to rationalize in their heads that what they are doing is OK to reduce the feelings of guilt deep within themselves. Some even come up with their standard of what is fit. The child will always find out the truth. It is a child's right to EQUAL time with BOTH fit parents. Some people hop around from family to family- from friend to friend - and they have no concept of the damage done from denying a child of another fit parents love. They are almost like parasites in a sense. Some, when they realize what they have done, still do nothing because of their addiction to Title IV-D welfare monies. In fact they will fight you at ever turn when a reduction in child support is requested. HEAVEN FORBID a father (most cases) desires to keep more money within his house to spend on his child the way he would like to. Often times the cost of attorneys alone lose any value towards fighting a reduction. But this would take common sense to figure out. They fight you at every turn because they are simply filled with hate and nothing more, yet they will brag to everyone about how they go to church and even more comments filled with the utmost hypocrisy.
2) Our membership numbers continue to increase. We are very thankful for this! We look forward to a incredible 2007! How many children, when they grow old enough to view such material, will have pictures and video of their father biking from Lansing, MI to D.C. in honor and love to them? The truth is always revealed in time. We can not wait for this event to unfold!
