    I do have experience with that. The only difference is my name was on the birth cert and I signed a paternity acknowledgement in the Philippines. CEM made us do a DNA test which showed the results that we already knew that she was not my daughter. The whole DNA process was a joke since I told...

    I go back a lot, I generally go every 6 weeks. Spent lots of savings doing it, and I am sure if it was just my wife and I the trips would be spaced out much more. But I have now a 2yr old and a 1yr old. That's the hard part. Skype doesn't have the ability to let you hold your kids and bond with...

    Roll call: How many have their passports with the Canadian Embassy in Manila?

    We are entering our 19th month of waiting, and they have had our passports since May 2013. I requested them back for a month last year so I could take my wife to Macau for our anniversary, but they never replied. The system is a very cold heartless system. Once they have established the marriage...
