But it is in some cases and in a majority of those cases its usually a cheating, lying, male at the heart of it.
This is a statement directed at both parties, not the disadvantaged parent alone.
I just don't want this thread to turn into a witch hunt on Japanese mothers when in a lot of these cases the male spouse has been shut out and he has done most of the work in getting that done himself.

Mediocremummy, and you believe that readily? I think its natural in a divorce situation for one party to solely blame the other and make themselves look like a victim to win sympathy and support.
I hear it all the time in my work but I just stare the guy in the face and tell him to tell me the truth.
It usually starts with "well one time I was drunk and had a one night stand and my wife found out but she was being a real b$tch at the time....."
By the end of the conversation there is usually a wife, steady girl friend and a couple of other random encounters.

Norinrad21,
How would you know? What a bitter statement.
why do you paint Japanese spouse as the monsters here? I can assure you that most divorces in discussion happen after the foreign man cheats on the Japanese wife.
There are men who trade their kids willingly for a night with a younger woman. Men who do that lose their kids and start crying about how hard done by they are. These same men cannot pay child support because they spent the money chasing tail and drinking beer and then cry that their ex wife shut them out.
In almost all of the divorce stories I have heard in Japan and I have heard a lot of them due to the nature of my work, The foreign guy got busted cheating.

My ex-wife lets me take our child anywhere, anytime that I like. Her father even drops him off to my house and picks him up on occasion and is far from the right wing crazy that Disillusioned thinks he is.
We never needed a lawyer or mediator to work this out. We just needed a mutual understanding.
The understanding is that I stay in Japan and work. I pay child support. I be a reliable parent to my son. I engage in dialogue regarding our child's welfare, education etc you know...be a parent.
The manner in which people conduct themselves both during and towards the end of their marriages and of course during divorce will decide the outcome of visitation rights.
If you beat, cheat, lie, betray, abuse, use and then get divorced from a Japanese spouse you get the reward of your action.
I did none of these things. we saw the writing on the wall for us and mutually decided to call it a day before some nastiness could creep in and wreck havoc.
I signed the divorce papers in a restaurant after buying her lunch and then I took my son to the zoo as it was a nice day.

Thats right on Midosuji. Osaka centrals most dominant vein. Outside that store there are usually taxis lined up from Umeda to Namba. There is usually a few salary men puking or passed out on the side walk and cops checking gaijin cards around that time. Looks like the recession is hitting the real economy hard. There were none of the above, just burglars.

This is utter tripe from the Israelis. Its just a TV show. Why do they have to cry "anti Semite" about everything? Semite people in general cast the first stone and when one gets cast back they cry and moan like teenage girls. I say the Turks should just tell them to "grow up" and continue with the show.
I am tired of the superiority complex of Semites. Guess what? you use the toilet, it stinks afterwards, you are one of us. A human.

ummmmmmm, this is the DPJ. Koizumi is LDP for life, with junior. Just what are you thinking? If you are being sarcastic, it still missed. Japanese people on the streets are grumbling but behind their surgical masks.
Let the DPJ clear away from this scandal and then lets see if they can defeat the bureaucrats. If not, military take over and reinstating the emperor may work.
Either that or the communist party......sighs deeply

The best way to deal with tramps who dress to get attention is to completely ignore them. Its bugs the hell out of them so much that they want to show you more. Taking pictures of them, though they love the attention, is falling right into their trap.
