Please Don’t Let Me Go Papa! is a valuable — and at times essential — resource for parents with children who are considering separation or divorce and want to make informed decisions in the best interests of their children.
In addition to shedding light on the challenges many families experience during separation and divorce, the author offers practical and achievable ways for social and legal systems to better fulfill their responsibility to protect the well-being and best interests of children and parents involved in divorce, separation, custody, and access proceedings.
Please Don’t Let Me Go Papa! is a moving and committed work that advocates for prevention through education around parental responsibilities, and for more compassionate, human-centred approaches to resolving family conflict involving children.
“This book recounts the remarkable saga of a father in search of his son. The father’s entanglement with the legal system almost ruins his life. However, his courage and endurance enable him to triumph and he is finally reunited with his son.”
— Ramrao Adik, Attorney
