Make Contact Denial & Parental Alienation a Criminal Offence

More details

so I ask the Government or Parliament to make the following changes -

1. A legal presumption of 50/50 Shared Parenting and Child Support after separation.

2. Include Contact Denial and Parental Alienation within the government definition of domestic violence, and make these criminal offences.

3. Swift enforcement of court orders when one parent uses COVID19 to deny the other access to their children.

4. Legislation that introduces automatic parental responsibility for all fathers - even when they are not married.
