Against my better judgment, I've once again wandered into the family courts in yet another post-judgment war about who gets to raise a broken couple's children. Once again, I am dumbstruck as I watch experts opine about what is in the best interest of the children. The sheer wastefulness of it all is breath-taking.
My client has custody of his three small children. His ex-wife, who absented herself from the children's lives, and from the state, has re-emerged, a new husband in tow, and now wants greater access to be a more active mom. She strikes me as no better, and certainly no worse, than most of us. She stumbled along life's way. Now she's trying to get back on her feet. There's no crime in that.
