About International Father’s Rights Day
Children , Legal
Ends: Dec 21, 2023
DESCRIPTION:
Desmond Doyle (1924 - 1986) was an Irishman and father whose wife left him and their children for another man. The state took care of his children when he went abroad for work, then refused to give them back. Poor, single, and alone, Doyle would have to fight tradition, the Irish state, and the Catholic Church for the right to raise his children, regardless of marriage. After years of fighting, he won. At the time, fathers were considered incapable of caring for children alone.
Doyle set a legal precedent and led the fight for fathers' rights, changing family law in Ireland by challenging the system and proving that a father could and should be able to raise his children. Over the following decades, his example would influence fathers and family law worldwide. He is a primary reason many fathers now receive partial or full custody of their children in divorce. December 21 is the anniversary of that ruling in 1955.
The 2002 film "Evelyn" with Pierce Brosnan celebrates his story and struggle.
