Battered Mothers And Child Custody Posted: 07-23-07 02:10am
Many women come out of divorce exausted,
desperate, depressed. And there are many
cases where the child custody is given to
the father due to financial reasons...
what happens with these women afterwards ?
Are there any organizations that protect
them and reopen cases maybe to give good
lawyers and custodies back to the mothers
?

I've seen many cases of
this................but the common
assumption is that the mother is the
better parent.............this is not
always the case.............when drug
abuse or perhaps mental illness is an
issue.................ithink the courts do
the best they can with the knowledge they
have ..............again some people will
fall thru................if people would
think only about the childrens
welfare..............instead of their own
personal gripes than everyone would be
better off...................a good start
would be someone in social services and
they could direct you to more specialized
services
