Kids need both parents

Bravo! Now only if the politicians would listen to the people who know and start acting in the best interest of the child/children. What a concept!

Good job Bud.

Politics that make practical sense for kids and families, regardless of a marital status; yeah, that would be some kind of profound. But be assured, politicians understand it's a majority of voters who provide them a job. If enough parents organize and demand justice in this matter, attention will be given as evidenced by how much more attention and sponsorship shared parenting legislation is receiving. And while there is a great deal of work left to do before we can say our family court system serves the needs of a majority of children in divorce, it's the demands by parents for something better, something equitable in parenting that is also driving new and positive trends on the Bench.
