Product Description
Book Description
Parents who settle custody disputes out of court will not only save tens of thousands of dollars, but will have avoided the rancor and hostility of a custody trial that makes future cooperation in raising the children almost impossible.
With help from a capable and experienced attorney, this book will allow the reader to present her/his case for custody in its best possible light. A must-read for divorcing parents, custody evaluators, family psychologists, and marriage and family therapists.

Too much emphasis on parental rights, what about kids rights,
By Sean Cummings (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Child Custody Book (Paperback)
The problem with this book is that it places emphasis on the legal concept of child custody and no emphasis whatsoever on the practical aspects of raising children. It treats child custody as a right of either parent (mostly mothers) and does not address a child's right to be raised by both parents - nor does it offer or suggest that parents can structure cohesive roles for actual parenting after a divorce occurs.Most parents who obtain custody can expect to be back in court on many occasions - why? Because one parent has been reduced to minimal time with their children and no effective role as a parent. While the book rightfully acknowledges the challenges associated with a shared parenting arrangement, it does not even suggest that post divorce litigation will occur as a direct result of the current "one parent has custody, one parent has visitation" regime that exists in most parts of Canada and the US. Not a good book for anyone who is looking to place a child centered approach to supporting their children after a divorce occurs.

How-To By A Professional,
By A Customer
This review is from: Child Custody Book (Paperback)
It was helpfull to see the process from the view of the professional. I would have liked more in-depth discussion and follow through on each subject. The information backed up what the lawyers say.

Ok for as far as it goes.,
By Jo Evanston (Rapid City, SD) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Child Custody Book (Paperback)
This book does not fully, or clearly, and or concisely explain. It simply explains the process of court child custody litigation. It very simplisticly shows how custody decisions are made. It doesn't really explain what can be expected.These guys don't personally understand why there is so much anger and pain and suggest we should easily move on. This book is self-serving for attorneys, evaluators, family psychologists, and marriage and family therapists. If you are buying everything, go ahead and buy this one.
