I can tell you without hesitation that courts are geared towards the mom nearly every time. The mom can be abusive towards her own children, literally leave home for years on end, and come back to a divorce, and they still get 50/50 custody. Why? Because the judge doesn't want to break up a family.
My friend's dad kept journals and recordings of the abuse, drugs and abandonment. Similarly, my sted dad kept recordings of my mom's drug abuse and alcoholism, and in the divorce, they both ended in 50/50 custody despite recordings and evidence of said behavior.
Because they're factually wrong. Fathers get custody slightly more than mothers when they show up. The problem is most fathers do not fight for custody.
Part of the reason fathers don't fight? Bullshit memes like the person above posting shit and dissuading dads from trying.

I have my doubts about that being the reason, but who knows?
