Sharon Bri said:

"The kids are with their father, you can't fight for custody like the father is some kind of demon, you can always visit."

Makgola Lehong commented:

"Giving birth doesn't automatically make a woman the better parent. The law is about the interest of the children not emotions of the parents."

"Actions have consequences now she is in debt."

Ntombifuthi Tembe Kgolane said:

"Denise must stop the victim card, kids were born in Germany, that is where they belong, go back to Germany my sister and fix this so that you can have access to your kids. I hope women will learn that kids belong to both parents."

Jay Tambekeni pointed out:

"This is exactly how men feel when their children are taken away from them i hope you see it now and on top of this the guy was gonna have to pay her to 'mantain' the children which for me is absurd bcz the one who can provide for children should stay with them period."
