You bet I believe that is a possibility! Biological connections are not the only way we may claim children as "ours". There are myriad reasons why he may have taken all the kids. None of them good, or right, but reasons all the same in his mind.

I am saying that when women strip men of their masculinity, then hold them hostage financially, deprive them of being fathers to their children, humiliate and torment them, all with government approval, so that the men cannot fight back, eventually they may snap.

Biological connections are not the only way we may claim children as "ours".


How, exactly, could this man have been held hostage to support children who weren't actually his? How do you deprive someone of being a father to someone who he is not related to in any sense of the word. By your logic, courts must also consider the rights of the soon-to-be ex-step-parents when doling out custody or visitation rights. While that's certainly very generous of you, it's hard to imagine a situation more humiliating than being forced by the courts to share custody of your progeny with a stranger through no fault of your own. Talk about depriving a father of his children!

Of course, since we can now claim children as our own through methods other than biological, any time your children have a close relationship with an adult, you would risk having to share custody with that adult. "Try not to spend too much time at practice, son. Coach and I have different vacation priorities and I'll be darned if you get to spend spring break camping while the rest of us go to Grandma's house,"
