This is great, especially for those mothers who are afraid to say that these violent, asinine fathers CAN NOT see the child. As a former worker in Child Welfare, I know that these bastards DEMAND that they see their child and the mother is afraid to say no. This losing son of a bitch even threatens the woman if she says he cannot see the baby. Now thank God, there is some permanent relief for these mothers and their babies. Hurrah!
