Not as close as it is to some. My parents were divorced but there were never any 'access' issues with us. As for me, I'm happily married and see my boy every day

I'm interested insofar as I believe we should seek justice and equality in all areas of our society, and it does appear to be lacking in this case. As far as legitimacy goes, I think drawing the line is a tricky business. Direct action that causes actual bodily harm to people is, I think, wrong, but I would put eggs and, indeed, condoms containing purple-stained flour just the right side of 'ABH'. However I think dialogue, and then peaceful direct action (protest marches and sit-ins) are preferable if possible.
