[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The family court system is so broken. I know someone who had documented abuse--- ER and doctor visits for injuries to the child. The child told his therapist he's scared of his dad and dad is mean and hits him and she still couldn't get full custody. This is why some women have to go underground to protect their children.[/quote] Yes, in the no so distant past the courts favored mothers when it came to custody issues, so much so that it was very rare for the mothers not to be given primary custody, even if this wasn't in the best interest of the children. Now the pendulum seems to have swung the other way & 50/50 custody is the default to the point where it is given even in situations where the kids would clearly be better off living primarily with one parent.
