Children Are Not Weapons

January 21, 2018 From Dr. Childress Comments are off

Family conflict is not solved by litigation.  Family conflict is solved through professional psychology.   Divorce ends the marriage; it does not end the family.  Where there are children, there will always be a family.   In divorce, the child’s best interests are that the family successfully transitions to a healthy and functional separated family … Continue reading Children Are Not Weapons

Divorce ends the marriage, not the … Continue reading Failing the Courts
