Father's Rights groups could have praised the judicial decision, which awarded Kevin Federline custody of his children over Britney Spears.

Instead they respectfully asserted that children suffer whenever they can't see a parent, whether it is a mom or dad.

"We make it clear that we support equal parenting and that children belong in the custody of their mother and their father. What has happened in the Britney Spears case is all very tragic and unfortunate - for the children," wrote Canadian father and activist Jeremy Swanson.

"As casual observers and like most parents we don't care much for the mother and her social difficulties as she is but we recognize that her children love their mom and they need her. Just as they need their dad.

It would have been easy to say, finally we won one. Instead fathers took the high road and said nobody wins in these awful battles.

Swanson deserves credit for his statements. After years of heartbreak, he knows how Spears must be feeling and he reached out instead of attacked.

What would you say to Spears, Federline or Swanson if you had the chance?

d4j reckons ; no children should have be used as weapons of war in the unsavoury and malicious Kangaroo De Family Court system. Parents who use parental alienation syndrome (PAS) as a lever are not worthy parents, and totally disgust anybody involved in the Fathers Rights Movement, regardless of their gender.

Kids deserve love and affection NOT manipulation and coercion.
