“The undersigned believe that Lifetime’s Deadbeat Dads provides a distorted and counterproductive view of divorced and separated fathers. Moreover, it is harmful to children to humiliate them publicly by depicting their fathers as not loving or caring for them. We respectfully request that Lifetime cancel this ill-conceived show.”
