In the state of Ohio, an unwed father has no rights to his child even for visitation until the court establishes an order. This needs to be changed. Gone are the days in which it was widely believed that mothers were the ones to raise children. Fathers share in the development, caring, and raising of their children.



Equality, trust, and teamwork should be the biggest issues upon raising a child. Children should be placed first in the eyes of both parents and no parent should have the right to use a child as a weapon. This behavior needs to be put to an end, an easy way to do so is to change the laws so until the courts establish a visitation agreement and are able to make decisions that impact their childs life. Fathers have rights too.
