  • Nothing to add to the discussion, but I would like to say that both Todd The Trad and SimpleMan are very fortunate to have their kids near them.

    You should (and you probably already do) thank the good Lord everyday for this.

    I live with my kid, thank God, but I imagine it would be soul crushing for me to live far from him, knowing that he is not getting the good parenting that every innocent kid should have.

    I never lose sight of that for a single day of my life.  It has been several years since I went one whole day without seeing my son.  I have heard of fathers who have not been allowed to see their children for years on end, and our female-dominated society is strangely (or not so strangely) okay with that.

  • If you want, start a novena to Our Lady or to even St. Rita of Cascia. I suggest doing the 54- day rosary novena. If you really want something, not just for yourself but for your daughter, go to Our Lady. Always hope and things will begin to change.
    Thank you I may do that. In fact my daughter's patron saint is st. Rita. On the day of her baptism there were st. Rita prayer cards put out and there's a st. Rita statue right by the baptismal font. One of st Rita's favorite saints was st. John the Baptist. 
    Our Lady of La Salette, pray for us!
