What lovely children!

You said that the mother of the children started a smear campaign against you, because she was afraid that Child Services would take the children away from her.

I have seen and heard how they try to coerce the mother to say bad things about the father.

My good friend here was dealing with them a couple of years back, after her toddler broke his leg in a bad fall. Doctors ruled out abuse, but Social Services kept sticking their noses in her business anyways, trying to steal her kids.

She has a great husband, who is a great father and they are in love.
But despite all of that the Social Workers kept prodding her over and over again to say bad things about her husband. And even though she had nothing bad to say about him, they told her that she should divorce him.
Fortunately she knew better than to fall for those tricks.

So-called Child Protection actually has the goal of breaking up families. Which is why we have created @familyprotection

While it is awful that your ex-wife succumbed to the "smear campaign", know that they would have tried their hardest to get her to smear you. They likely took everthing that she said and made it appear even worse than what she had actually said.

I`m so sorry that you went through all of that, and are still fighting to have proper access to your children.
