Good read, especially when read with another book!
'Real Dads stand up' is a good read on how to expolit the family law system to it's fullest advantage if you are a father. Another book on Amazon, FAMILY COURT HELL, goes into a real life child access case that lasted ten years and 133 court hearings-and only resolved when the father stepped outside the family law system and launched the worldwide Fathers 4 Justice protest group. Best to read both books, especially if you are going through this anti father family law system.

Must read. A Bible .A Life Saver.
I definitely recommend this book.I read this book about a dozen times. This book is remarkable. It has helped me in family court. I had no clue what was going on in my case and my lawyer was either getting an adjournment and not speaking up when I thought he should be saying something. He was letting the mother get away with everything at my expense. I read this book and it made a difference in my case because I learned that I had a right to visit and that my kids mother could not get in the way and continue to deny me visits with my kid. I felt armed with the right stuff after reading this book. I was also able to put my lawyer straight.

This book is a step-by-step guide that is easy to read and understand. Law and legal concepts are often confusing and hard to grasp without some legal background. Real Dads Stand Up is like a road map to manuevering the court system. This book tells you what they don't want fathers to know about family court. This book is a must read for any father who wants to get active in their childs life.

I like the sports analogies in the book. I could really relate to not knowing when to play offense or defense. I was stuck somewhere in the middle getting knocked over the head with the ball. My case got settled and my kids mother knows now that I know what should be going on in court. I was shocked after the about the third chapter when I really looked at the name on the cover and saw that this book was written by a woman. Wow! It was like she knew what she was talking about. She was standing up for fathers. I felt like I had an edge since this information was coming from an expert.

It's about time. I learned that child support is not payment to see my kid. I also learned how to deal with the child support system. Ms. Crowe is truly a gem. After reading this book I restored my faith. Having this book was like having an angel on my shoulders whenever I went to court. I learned how to fight back and organize my files and what papers I needed. I now know how to deal with the court system. I sat and read this book and could not put it down for hours. Each chapter made me get stonger.I really liked the chapter on changing a child support order. At the end of the book there are court forms that are really helpful. This books walks you through when you get served with papers all the way to what happens at the hearing and after the hearing. It took my fear away.

Great Lifesaver

This book is excellent. Don't to court without it. Don't let your lawyer go to court without it. It is a life saver for any father who feels like giving up after taking a beating in court. I gave this book out as Christmas gifts to friends. It is easy to read and you can really know the law. Some lawyers need this book. If you want to advocate for your rights this book shows you how. Alicia M. Crowe really breaks down the system so that you get it. Two fathers I gave this book too were in a state of depression over not seeing their kids. One joined a local fatherhood group and got active and ultimately got empowered to help other fathers. The other won custody of his son. Both read Real Dads Stand Up and they thank me everytime they see me. Alicia M. Crowe really cares about famalies and it shows in her book. I heard about her from K-Rights radio.com. Her interview was absolutely mind blowing.

Product Description
The process of Divorce is indeed painful. And if the misery of a prolonged battle for custody and monetary settlements are added to it then it is almost excruciating. Children from such a marriage are usually seen to be laboring under considerable emotional stress already and a custody battle is agonizing for them as well.

In some cases though, it is imperative to discuss the question of child custody before the couple legally separate. The question of custody being an almost predominant issue in divorce suits you would be wise to update yourself about the nitty-gritty's of the issue so that you can make a well-informed decision.

Product Description
By a window looking from Posillipo upon the Bay of Naples sat an English lady, engaged in letter-writing. She was only in her four-and-twentieth year, but her attire of subdued mourning indicated widowhood already at the stage when it is permitted to make quiet suggestion of freedom rather than distressful reference to loss; the dress, however, was severely plain, and its grey coldness, which would well have harmonized with an English sky in this month of November, looked alien in the southern sunlight. ...

Gissing begins his middle, most skilled period
George Gissing is one of the authors I most enjoy.This novel started off his "middle period" of novels.It was marked by a move from fiction about the underclasses of laborers and impoverished people to fiction that examined the middle classes.Some of these were people who were employed, others were Victorian-era heirs to monthly incomes and sometimes real estate.The Emancipated deals mostly with these modest heirs who are free to pursue whatever interests them, without regard for employment.

The novel concerns a group of Brits who vacation in Italy.Being freed from the constraints of making a living, these people occupy themselves with travel, art, philosophy, actualization in romance, and preserving their "health."They are secular and many have rejected religious dogma.The plot focuses on the group as a loose entity of sorts, and hones in on several members' search for emotional and spiritual fulfillment.

As typical for a Gissing book, the plot is not forced into artificially happy endings or contrived coincidences.The developments are often spurred by the motivations and psychologies of the characters.However, Gissing was not the skilled author here as he would become with later novels from this middle period (The Whirlpool, The Odd Women).There is in this volume a stilted quality to the philosophising, the dialogue, and the pacing.The characters are often not fully engaging to the reader.

As an admirer of Gissing's work, I'm glad I read the book.I would not, however, recommend it to any but serious students of the author or of Victorian-era literature.It is not as fully developed or finessed as others in his list. ... Read more

Product Description
'Poison Parents' is a powerful book, dealing with all aspects of the parental alienation syndrome which tears loving relationships between parents and children apart in the post-divorce and separation environment. It explores the devastating effectthat malicious parenting can have on impressionable children, the target parent and extended
family and friends. Drawing an interesting parallel between personality disorder and alienating behavior, 'Poison Parents' exposes the syndrome and offers insightful ways of coping with and combating the insidiously destructive campaign of hate.

Written by Criminologist, Grace Humphreys, it is a must-read for anyone who knows a child or
children involved in a post-divorce tug-o-war between parents.

A must for any dad!
This book is an honest portrayal of what a dad can expect when his relationship with mum falters.Even though we are now in the 2010, the family courts will not recognise a child can happily exist in two homes.The result is that a father will have to fight equal time with his children and will have to come to terms with the fact that his family life will be fragmented and quite possibly destroyed forever.Scary, heartbreaking but totally sympathetic - this book is a must for every parent who needs informative support during divorce and family breakdown. ...
