LenFirewood05 May 09, 2:54pm (6 minutes ago)I would like to see someone write about the current war on fatherhood that is raging almost throughout the western world. I know of a very well respected and eloquent writer in this field - he is called Glen Sacks. Here is some info from his own blog: Glenn Sacks is the Executive Director of Fathers & Families, the nation's largest family court reform organization. Fathers and Families, a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization, improves the lives of children and strengthens society by protecting the child's right to the love and care of both parents after separation or divorce. Glenn's columns have appeared in dozens of the largest newspapers in the United States. He regularly appears on radio and TV, and is often quoted in major publications. GlennSacks.com was founded in 2001 and is by far the largest men's and fathers' issues blog in the world.His email address is [email protected] - he doesn't know I have suggested him but he is sure to respect the coverage that the Guardian could give to the issues he finds so important.I'm feel confident that when you see Glenn's writings you will be assured that you would be getting a piece of excellent thought provoking material that also fulfils high journalistic standards.
what do you expect from a nation that elected whats her name, harriet harman, yeah thats it.I think britain's conservative newspaper is the daily mailare you a brit?
Secondly the Guardian moderators have just inexplicably deleted my request despite the request being on topic, non abusive (in fact I went out of my way to be polite and respectful!) and is an issue much neglected by the newspaper. I have just raised a strong objection but to be frank I am not holding my breath that it will do any good!

Well, supposedly it happened because you had Glenn Sacks' email address there... try the same post/comment without the address again. It'll be interesting to watch.
