Law and Children

Andrew Schepard, a professor of law and director of the Center for Children, Families and the Law at Hofstra University School of Law, writes that for most of the United States and the rest of the democratic world, the message no fault divorce conveys is that divorce is a tragic but inevitable consequence of the evolution of some adult relationships.

The Anaheim, Calif., lawyer was told during oral arguments in San Francisco: While the state's Fair Employment and Housing Act prevents employers from firing someone based on age, it doesn't stop them from denying certain benefits to employees over 40.
