“Your children can’t be forced to live or like you”

This is true, but until the child is emancipated, they don’t get to make the decision about whether to see Mom or Dad - a decision which is likely to be heavily influenced by the parent who, in violation of Court orders, is bashing the other parent. In the same vein, they don’t get to decide by themselves about marriage, sex, medical care, alcohol consumption, obeying rules etc.

Parent means parent. Child means child. Children are not autonomous.

Divorced parent means one of the parents is no longer living at home and has decided that raising children is no longer their first priority. No whatever the reasons behind such a marital split are the children had NOTHING to do with it. To use children as weapons in divorce relations is NUTS. If you think forcing a child to spend time with a parent who has broken a marriage is desirable then you need to do some reading.
