Hi i'm Larissa i'm 23yrs old i'm married and i have a 3yr old girl Elabree and a 9mth old Shaylee!

But i'm frustrated and confused and angry with the australian family court system because Elabree has to go for visitation with her father you i have am AVO out against because he was physcialy and mentaly violent to the both of us before i left him when she was 16mths old!

They don't care about whats best for the child they only care about the fathers rights and it's very wrong!

I feel that as a mother you are put on this earth to do everything to protect your child in every way posable but my rights to do that have been taken away!

They wonder why they have 1 in 4 girls being sexualy abused or murded this is why because they giving violent fathers to many rights to there children i think if a child wants to see or have anything to do with the father it should be the childs choice not what the father wants!

Is anyone else in the position ?

im not in this position at mo but know where ur coming from as when i was younger me and my brother (who has hemophillia) went through the same thing as it didnt matter if we wanted to see our dad or not it was down to him through visitations but as soon as i was old enough to be listened to i stopped seeing him and i have had nothing to do wiv him since. by the sounds of things to what he was like he will slip up soon so maybe the best thing to do is grit ur teeth and wait for him to slip up but keep talking to ur daughter and checking her to make sure things are not happening to her because she will say i use to and thats when my mum went back to court about it and we then got the choice to visit or not (although by this time i was 6) which i never did but my brother did as he was different towards him but as he grew up he stopped and saw him for what he is.

sorry if this dont help much just thought i would let u know what happened in the situation when i was a child so u have some sort of idea.
