One of the creators of the Fathers Center vehemently denied that the case law as of 2021 disadvantages fathers who want to take responsibility for a child together against the mother 's will. Apparently another opinion could not be left standing, so the controversy on this topic took up most of the final round. Subsequently, the evaluation form for the group program, which had been announced several times, was not sent to the participants and another informal meeting of the group was not organized as announced. Only the organizers themselves know whether this was really accidental . I think I read somewhere on the website that 90% of the participants would recommend the group program , something like that. For me there is a question mark. Also remembered is the claim by one of the leaders that any positioning that goes towards fathers ' rights “immediately ends up in the bottom drawer everywhere”. Unfortunately, it seems to be very important for the Fathers Center not to offend the feminist mainstream, especially since funds are received from the Berlin Senate (e.g. around €170,000 per year in 2020 and 2021). For me as a separated father, the trustworthiness of the advice offered suffers. As a separated father, I continue to find it extremely difficult to find professional advice that really has my interests in mind. In order to campaign for my son and I 's shared right to fatherhood, I joined the Fathers ' Awakening Berlin. There was now really competent and honest advice there, for which I am very grateful. In short, if you feel like you 're in good hands at this Fathers center: fine. If, like me, you don 't feel represented there, you could try getting advice from Fathers ' Departure Berlin.
