Description

Children of custody battles are caught in the center of the fury, as they struggle to adapt and wait for the bitter fighting to stop. Rebuilding a family’s future with the court, mental health professionals are mostly solo clinicians or court personnel with widely differing training, and world views. For children and the frantic parents there can be “A luck of the draw” outcome since few professionals are trained to “Rebuild Families.” Most judges consider the polestar “Best Interests of the Child” state guidelines when forced to become architects for broken homes. The book’s expert team evaluation and help is based on a unique comprehensive protocol favored by Family Court judges. Building plans based on this book’s unique Best Interests of the Child Protocol with the efficient team approach (two heads are better than one) allows the parents to accept the outcome as fair if not favorable.The court, in turn, is better able to render a timely judgement, focused on the children’s needs, influenced by a team’s (psychologist/socialworker or psychiatrist) logical, deep expert look at the family puzzle. When a family’s future is decided by strangers all professionals involved wield an awesome power and have a profound impact. If you want to do your work well as a judge, lawyer, psychologist, psychiatrist or court custody worker, make sure you have this book as a reference.
