A woman has been given permission to change the surname of her three-year-old twin sons after telling a family court judge that they needed protecting from their father's internet blogging ''activities''.
Judge Ross Duggan gave his approval after raising concerns about the man's ''bizarre conduct''.
The judge said man had not seen the children for a year after separating from his wife and becoming embroiled in litigation about what contact he should have with them.
He said the man had a ''perception of martyrdom'' and had created a ''protest blog'' which he updated ''virtually daily''.
Judge Duggan said the man had ''taken to referring'' to his estranged wife as ''a drug-addicted alcoholic ... who suffered from sexually transmitted diseases'', had posted a medical report relating to one of his children, had posted ''extensive details'' of litigation issues and had posted his sons' names.
The judge said the man had ''let himself down'' - and said his ''activity'' had been ''severely damaging'' to the welfare of the children and concluded that allowing the woman to change the children's names was ''necessary and proportionate''.
