yeah , its all hard going when the ex stops you from seeing your kids.
MY missus & i broke up in 2007, & she gave me 12months of grief, she didnt want me to see my son at all anymore ,he was * at the time, but i pushed on through the system ,having togo to court throughout the year.
  It drives you mad what they do to you, but you have to get your s--t together ,& eventually you can see your kids again......
