DICC (Dads in Custody Conundrums) Founding Father
A loving father of 3—DICCs founding father will be referred to as “Peter.”
Peter was simply going about life, loving his wife and kids, working 2 jobs to support their home and lifestyle, the all-American Dream…when his beloved wife left him for the soccer coach. Blindsided by her infidelity, disregard for their children’s well-being and future, and left betrayed and brokenhearted, Peter was interested in only one most important aspect of the life they had built—his three children.
Peter fought legal battle after legal battle to avoid losing his children, and to avoid being forced into the ever-so-easy 20th Century cookie-cutter Divorce & Custody framework of “mom gets full custody; Dad gets the bills, the debt, and oh-by-the-way 2 weekends a month until their 18”….regardless of taking into account why this “mother” should automatically be assumed to be the more “stable” parent for custody. Peter would have liked full custody, but was forced to settle for joint (50/50) custody.
Peter’s challenging journey has led him to take up this cause to help other fathers out there facing Custody Conundrums, and the tragically real “Dad Discrimination” that has become the corruptly accepted norm of our Divorce and Custody laws in the United States….Moms are handed the checks and the kids; Dads are handed debt and an empty carseat.
Peter has been able to move forward in life, and since re-married a very understanding, loving and unselfish wife and stepmother; together they work hard every day to provide an unconditionally loving and stable home for their blended family. As a DICC, Peter’s life is founded in showing his children that THEY are loved; he was not going to give them up just because their mother changed her mind and chose a different life for their family. Along the way, Peter knew it was not the easy road, it was not the cheapest road…it was the road that was best for his children; the children that deserve to know they had a Dad that loved them and would never let them go. And Peter knows that it takes a lot of dedication, perseverance, and HUMOR to sometimes just get through one day…
Proud to be a DICC, Peter has made it his mission to bring awareness and support of these Paternal Custody issues that have, for so long, been overlooked because of “traditional” accepted agreements and the sad double standards that exist in this country often favoring mothers more, regardless of the quality of parent. So Peter feels it’s time for the DICCs to take a stand for themselves and their children! Don’t take it lying down, DICCs! …that’s what got us here in the first place!
Unite, support, and stand up for your rights, and most importantly your kids’!
Be a hero…be a DICC!!!
