I've done so...I think we are jumping the gun here. I've done some research and this "change in the law" is just a change in terminology to say the least. If you do some research through some law firms in FL, the terminology is changing to eliminate the feeling of being the lesser parent. My point is... (as one FL 'pro dad' attorney phrased it).. "A skunk is a skunk is a skunk...It still stinks!" So changing the terminology is just a way to say 'shut up' for now? Just a thought. I do feel bad for the father that really do care, please don't misunderstand me. But I come from an abusive, drunk of a husband who does NOT have my sons best interest at heart. So for those "TRUE LOVING DADS".... fight to be with your children. And the little time you do have... DON'T BAD MOUTH THE MOTHERS, trust me.... you'll be the bad guy in the end!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385648436759590208.post-38307229818258997612008-09-03T11:12:00.000-07:002008-09-03T11:12:00.000-07:00IT is about time.

I have spent thousands of dollars with attorneys and other legal ways to be apart of my childs life. I hate to say it, but until I saw this post, I thought the system had let me down. Its about time the system took anitiative. No more hiding behind the kids custodial parents.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385648436759590208.post-27733488373327607772008-08-09T11:42:00.000-07:002008-08-09T11:42:00.000-07:00As a spouse who did not want to get divorced, did ...As a spouse who did not want to get divorced, did everything possible to preserve the marriage and as a parent who is adored by the kids, this is good news.<BR/>As a mental health professional in the field of High Conflict Divorce and Parental Alienation, it is about time the legislature took interest in the true benefit of the children. <BR/>It was useless for a parent to attempt to have a healthy relationship with the kids, when the more adversarial parent and the legal system did not contribute to that function. <BR/>This new law is the first step toward restoring a balance into the emotional state of the kids of divorce, ensuring a better future for them and investing in a healthier and safer society.<BR/>With this new law, the real winners are the children!<BR/>Dr. Carlos R.
