In short, if you don't know the material in this book, you don't know human rights, (including children's rights, men's or father's rights, and women's rights) as it applies in contemporary western society. If you have yet to emancipate yourself from the radical feminist induced mental slavery, you may not be ready for this book.

I've read several highly regarded father and children's rights books, and find this one by far the best. This book makes it apparent why the most staggering human rights violations in the history of the world are being perpetrated by the state and federal governments of the United States and the United Kingdom, in particular, against their own laws and ratified treaties with the United Nations. It is concerned with no less than government coerced self-implosion, using our precious children as fodder by dysfunctional, deviant, and self-appointed misandrists.

Now I finally understand why my children's lives are being ruined and I, as their father, can do nothing to prevent it. My question as to why those sworn to uphold the law in the state of Iowa would intentionally break the law, knowingly ensuring that my children will then be subjected to neglect, and physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, has finally been answered. This book makes it clear why any attempt to protect my children is met with hostility towards me, and additional abuse being forced upon them. And the detrimental lifelong consequences to my children, and to their own descendants, are becoming quite clear.

This book is for anyone truly concerned with children, men, women, our society, our descendants, or our future. Unless you find widespread, state sponsored torture and deprivation to humans desirable, I suggest you purchase and read this great work immediately, and then seriously consider taking action to prevent the downfall of western civilization.

Thank you Stewart, for your great and noble work for children.

Mr. Rein's book is refreshing and disturbing. Betrayal of the Child is politically incorrect because it dares to expose the the raw nerves of a "justice system" gone mad, driven by money, corruption and state abuse of power. This book is 'the' book to have if one is about to get involved in family court. Its not only a father's rights book, it deals with the implications of family breakup for all concerned especially the children.

While being in a city and state that supposedly supports "father's rights", my husband and I are terrified of what we are setting into motion next week- trying to get custody of his daughter.

Despite the fact that his ex is lying about where his child support is going (luckily we have proof), her moving out of state (illegal in this state), changing his daughter's last name, refusing to let her call him "daddy" and the fact that he hasn't seen her in months (those are just the the tip of the iceburg)... there is that doubt. Because she is "The Mother".

It seems that unless a woman is on drugs or a mental institution (actually in a hospital, because meds, or refusal to take them, isn't enough apparently) the father is at the mercy of the mother's every bad day.

So we go, to possibly spend thousands of dollars, just to make the messed up court system acknowledge a beautiful, bright, six year old girl's right to know her father, any new siblings, and her father's extended family. Maybe.

And if this book seems a little "pro-man", and therefor "anti-woman", so be it. There are plenty of "empowering" books for women, why not men?

This is the most comprehensive look at children's rights and custody issues to find its way into print. The author writes with compassion, spirit, anger and concern in arguing for the rights of children to have the love and nurturing of both parents in the aftermath of divorce and custodial conflict. His evidence is first-rate and his sources reliable. This book should be read not just by fathers, but by judges,lawyers, psychiatrists, probation officers, guardian ad litems and mothers. This is a book that all English fathers have been waiting for and need. An English Dad in America, James Worthington, Esq.

A daring and audacious dissertation that delves into the issues of children's rights from a fathers point of view. Having experienced custodial conflict, Stewart's insightful and compassionate perspective captures the essence of what it means to be a father who loves and is devoted to his children and is willing to do whatever it takes to stay involved in their lives.

I'm not in the business of advertising but I just finished reading the book a few minutes ago and it may very well replace all those other books on the market. It goes beyond the simplistic explanations and advice. It may well be the closest book we have these days to a definitive guide to protecting our children from the loss of their fathers!

I am a divorced Dad and have gone through the Family Court system, unfortunately prior to reading this book. I have raised three children for 13 years; single-handedly and now find myself as an outsider in a custody dispute over my forth child, a 1-year-old son. I must share with anyone (women, men, dads, moms, children) that you must read this book. It is an excellent description of what fathers and their children face in the current Family court climate. Not only describing in a very truthful and non-euphemistic manner the current issues and trends but also how we got here.

One in every two men will face these issues at some point in their lives. However, most are clueless and those that are not clueless, don't seem to care. Even parents (yes, both Moms and Dads) with children who are boys, don't seem to understand just what kind of a position these boys can be in as grown men. How we got here is a sad story of misunderstandings, misbelieves, poor science, poor deduction, and clouded views, but the fact that we are still here despite significant and continually mounting evidence, is truly a shame and one of the biggest, yet "secret" failures, of our society.

If you do not read this book for yourself then read it for your son or any boy that you know will some day be a father.

There is nothing like developing an understanding when faced with issues in life that only serve to confuse and bewilder. Reading this book has helped me understand what happened to me and my children and why. This in turn has helped me deal with the problem from a better perspective. It has also helped to alleviate some of the frustration simply by having a more complete understanding of the nature of the problem. And although it may have come too late to change my situation, I can still use this powerful information to try to help other fathers not yet divorced gain an awareness of lies in wait for them should they have the misfortune of receiving divorce papers. When warned beforehand, it is a dereliction of a man's duty as a father to fail to read this indispensible book.

This book has been an inspiration to me. It points out what happened, why it's bad and suggests how you should proceed.

I beg everyone to read this book. It should make everyone criticize the courts descisions as well as their own beliefs.

Mr. Rein exhibits too much anger against women to make this book useful. His conclusions lack a sound scientific basis. He mentions, but does not explore other reasons for the dysfunction of children of divorce. Could it possibly have something to do with the recent study on daycare which found an increased incidence of violence in children who spend more than 30 hours a week in daycare? Instead of addressing these equally important facts, Mr. Rein seems intent on blasting all mothers involved in divorce. For this reason, I did not find the book credible, but gave it two stars since Mr. Rein has done a lot of one sided homework.
