What can I say? This is how it was and this is how it is. I believe you should all see this. We Dads are never the same again after experiences like this. Just so you all  know the next message he sent was full of accusatory abuse and curse words related to misinformation he got which made him believe I was “Stalking” his Sister my first born. A few years later he chose to have dinner with me and while I as delighted to be with him and speak to him and hold him briefly,  he acted like the stranger he was and is and he NOT ONCE called me DAD. Not once. I was heartbroken. He and I were once close. Canada’s feminist family law took my once loving son from me. I can and will Never forgive or forget that. Never.

NO. F. 6-15/98-CW
GOVERNMENT OF INDIA
MINISTRY OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT
DEPARTMENT OF WOMEN AND CHILD DEVELOPMENT
New Delhi, the 9th February, 2004
Subject:- National Charter for Children, 2003
RESOLUTION
The Government of India have had for consideration the question of adopting a National Charter for Children to reiterate its commitment to the cause of the children in order to see that no child remains hungry, illiterate or sick. After the consideration, it has been decided to adopt the National Charter for Children enunciated below:-
National Charter for Children, 2003
Whereas the Constitution of India enshrines both in Part III and IV the cause and the best interest of children, insofar that:
The State can make special provisions for children, (Art 15 (3))
The State shall provide free and compulsory education to all children of the age of six to fourteen years, (Art 21.A)
No child below the age of 14 years shall be employed to work in a factory, mine or any other hazardous employment, (Art. 24)
The tender age of children is not abused and that citizens are not forced by economic necessity to enter avocations unsuited to their age or strength (Art. 39 e), and that
Children are given opportunities and facilities to develop in a healthy manner and in conditions of freedom and dignity and that youth are protected against exploitation and against moral and material abandonment (Art. 39 f),
The State shall endeavour to provide early childhood care and education for all children until they complete the age of six years, (Art. 45)

Children from broken homes can grow up with trust issues, which affect their ability to commit, says Seema Sinha
 TIMES NEWS NETWORKÂ
    WHEN a couple breaks up, the repercussions can be felt years later, in their children’s lives. Commitment-phobia can be a common problem, as cricketer Yuvraj Singh, who comes from a broken home, candidly confessed recently. Often termed a casanova, but otherwise well-grounded, actor Shahid Kapoor also seems to be running away from the C-word. For 30-plus Kareena Kapoor too, a career seems to offer more stability than the marriage option.
    They’re not alone. In her early 40s, actor Tabu is not showing any signs of commitment. Scottish actor Gerard Butler, linked to Jennifer Anniston sometime ago, is afraid of settling down. Reportedly, Gerard’s issues with women stem from an absentee father. Mahesh Bhatt’s son Rahul shudders at the thought of his children going through the anguish he did when his father walked out on his mother.

The Supreme Court in M/s Shiv Cotex v. Tirgun Auto Plast Pvt. Ltd. & Ors. has lamented the conduct of unscrupulous litigants in delaying the justice delivery system in the country. Justice Dalveer Bhandari in an earlier judgment had highlighted the bottlenecks in the judicial system which lead to pendency of cases for decades or more. We have covered that judgment in our post ' Justice, Courts and Delay : Remedial Measures'. In the present judgment, Justice R.M. Lodha has hit out at unscrupulous litigants and lawyers who have allowed the concept of adjournments to grow in to a cancer corroding the entire judicial delivery system. The relevant extracts from the judgment are reproduced hereinbelow;
15. Second, and equally important, the High Court upset the concurrent judgment and decree of the two courts on misplaced sympathy and non – existent justification. The High Court observed that the stakes in the suit being very high, the plaintiff should not be non-suited on the basis of no evidence. But, who is to be blamed for this lapse? It is the plaintiff alone. As a matter of fact, the trial courtÂ
