Kate & Emily

I have a 26 yr old daughter whom i have had no contact with except the first months she was born. I was 21 and her mother was 18 when she was born. We split up shortly after she was born her parents were totally against me and i did go to court to gain access. I was granted 4 hours per week which had to be supervised. I did not think this was fair after all i was her father. The arguments continued between me, her mother and her family i decided to stop seeing my daughter because of this. It has been the biggest regret in my life.

hi am 17 and i live with my partner 20 and our 4 and half month old son.

I've been with my wife for 12 years, married for 9.5 of it. I've been in the military for the last 8 years. We have two beautiful little girls, one is 5 and the other is 3. Right now the military has all of us living in the UK. My wife and I are originally from the US. Last August, my wife decided she wanted and filed for a divorce, for reasons I don't think I'll ever really know or understand. Since, I've been torn on how we know what is best for the children. Once everything is said and done my wife will be going back to the US, and I'll have to stay here.

Here I sit working from home and on my mind as usual is my daughter, who will be 17 this June. I will probably delete all I am going to write so if it does appear then I will surprise myself - I have never ever written this down but I am going out of my mind with my situation. My daughter lives in Australia, the last time I saw her was when she ran back to me to kiss me at Terminal 2 in 1995, she wasn't even 2, as she, my then wife and her first daughter left the UK back for Australia. I was 27.
