A STORY about a father who has been waiting 10 months to see his two children since they were picked up from his home by the children's mother has hit a chord with readers who sympathise with the family.

I feel for these poor children, another mother who has taken the law into her own hands.

Please share this on Facebook so these children don't suffer parental alienation.

No woman has a right to take kids away from their father unless he's a danger to them!

A lot of women use the kids as a way to get back at a father over a failed relationship and its wrong!

Very sad. May his children be found safely.

Very sad world we live in.

Shared parenting is what every child deserves.

Without it, they are being deprived of the most important thing.

More important than expensive days out, fancy toys, fancy gifts.

Love is what our children and grandchildren deserve.

To every mother depriving a child of their father, you can never undo the damage to the child.

Think long-term, and build up our children, don't destroy their future.

Alienating a child against the other parent by filling their hearts with hate, not love is just wrong.

If a mother makes false claims against a father in order to retain custody and to gain more child support, should have the full strength of law thrown at them.

The judiciary system only serves the courts and legal representatives by keeping it ongoing being a billion dollar industry.

Less time in court, more time on parenting.

Imagine if the tables were turned and the father hadn't brought back his children.

It would be plastered all over the media, but it's ok for the mother not to return the kids?

A small minority of woman behave appallingly and blatantly use children and emotionally cripple men who deserve to be fathers to their children just as much as the mothers.

What a terrible situation.

Another example where the children are the pawns in a terrible no-win battle.

Daily News readers have applauded a McDonald's worker who has become an online hero after helping a customer with a disability cut his food.

Little bit of kindness goes a long way.
