Why do some moms use their children as a weapon?

Question

Why do some mothers uses their children to hurt their ex-partners? I know a man that has two kids and the mother dangles them in front of him tell him he can have them and than rips them out of his hands. I can see the pain for not being with his kids and the anger and the hate for his ex. Please help me to help him get his children. The US is still to much for the woman and not the fathers. HELP

Answer 1

lack of maturity and heartlessness. god forbid if there was ever a situation with me and my husband.... i would never get my children caught up in it.

Answer 2

the ex is a bitter, angry, selfish cow!

Good luck, I don't think you gonna get that right in a million years!

It's gonna get even worse the day your friend gets a gf or a wife,

Answer 3

That isn't right, they are both parents, they both have responsibilities in that role. Tell him to take her to court and say that he has every right to see his children and have full or partial custody of them if he wants to. His ex seems like an awful person, the kids are not bait. She obviously is a very indecent person to treat her children like worms.

Also get him to say is it because he is a male that he has less privileges to see his children? Because mother or father they both decided to share the responsibility  of being parents and bringing those children into the world and therefor they should both have equal responsibility in bring them up.
