Unmarried fathers left off the birth certificate need more rights and support
We need to give unmarried fathers equal rights over their children, and provide legal aid to those left off the birth certificate to help get them on it.
Also we need to provide legal aid to fathers being refused or having limited contact with their children so the children can know their family.
Mothers blocking fathers out of their childrens lives is an increasing problem and fathers don't have the rights or financial backing to do anything about it. This leads to more and more children growing up without one of their parents.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you're concerned about the treatment of unmarried fathers who aren't on a child's birth certificate, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do to support them.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
