Herald Scotland: Fathers group call for withdrawal of “hate male” Children’s Hearings Scotland ads
A FATHERS rights group has condemned adverts showing a man threatening to hit a child by Children’s Hearings Scotland, describing them as discriminatory.
Fathers4Justice urged supporters to contact the organisation to ask them to withdraw the adverts with immediate effect.
A statement on behalf of Fathers4Justice founder, Matt O’Connor, said institutional discrimination against dads “must end” and that ‘hate male’ adverts like these “failed to tackle the reality of domestic abuse when it affected all family members, irrespective of gender”.
Children’s Hearings Scotland have been approached for comment.
