"With all that has happened to you, you should write a book."
Jack Dalton, the ex-wife's first attorney of record in our divorce.
The book took me six years to write. Many times, due to the emotional stress of reliving and remembering what took place during my divorce, I would literally have to push myself away from the desk and my keyboard and go away from the difficult task of writing this book, sometimes not to resume writing for days, weeks and even months.

"You're the best pro-se litigant I have had in my courtroom in the 27 years I've been on the bench .... I don't give reasons, I give rulings. Now, sit down and shut-up. If I hear another word out out of you, I'll find you in contempt of court."
The "Honorable" Judge John E. Buffington, Humboldt County California Superior Court
From the reviews:
"Deadbeat Dads are real" Charles Fockaert has accurately and
unemotionally documented in great detail what the divorce system did to
him. This book is unusual in that it is a fully-cited documentary
containing full source material and names of individuals in the divorce
system.. This sets it apart from other books consisting mostly of rants
or anecdote. This book is also unusual in that it names the individuals
who abuse the system, and documents exactly what they did. Charles
suffered just about every possible perversion practiced by the family
courts. The richness of the situation first made me ask myself "how
could anyone handle this without going nuts?" Those who are not aware
of the vagaries of the divorce system should read this book. This book
is an accurate, microcosmic view of what goes in every day in divorce
courts across America. The people identified in the book do not like
like it. They better get used to not liking it because the men's
movement is here to
stay. Those who think they can make a living destroying fathers for
arbitrary or false reasons better get another job, unless of course,
they want to be subject of a much larger documentary which is sure to
take place in the future. David R. Usher Senior Policy Analyst True
Equality Network.
