Does family court visitation schedule help either parent or child?

Family court schedules for visitation are complicated and are not designed to help either the parent or the child, but to exert the power of an institution that cares very little as to the objective of its actions. The court exhibits little interest in maintaining the relationship that is exists at the time of their involvement, but rather bully vulnerable children into accepting visiting schedules by the parent of their choosing, and primary parent chosen solely by the judge. Parent child relationship have to begin early in life;

 Many believe this relationship begins before birth. Family court judges do not care about disruptions associated with their actions of separation and how for even limited periods, affect the parent child relationship.

There are times when separation from parent or parents is in the best interest of the child, but that decision cannot be made in a vacuum. One would assume that family court judges operate with a plan that primarily focuses on maintaining parent child relationship close to what was normal for the child as possible.

 Effects of separation are not of concern to family courts. The objective of these courts seem to be fixing the child, yet there actions more often than not destroy either one or both parents. Family courts seem to perceive no harm separating a child that has spent years with one parent, and turning that child to a parent that has misses most of that child's life.

Parents have very different views of their children compared to legal authorities. These authorities have a job to do and there is little diversion from their intended vision. Maintaining a child's relationship with a parent is not an objective of family courts.

Research has shown that parent child relationship is essential to the correct up bringing of a child. Stability and consistency cannot be attributes to the term separate. It is my view that judges should not be given authority to perform such sensitive tasks without the benefit of professionals trained in social affairs.

 It may be found that separation from either parent is not an option. Judges do not possess the qualifications to make life changing decisions like awarding one parent a child verses another. The 14th amendment is correct.

The protection it affords should not be diverted from under any circumstance. Courts should provide due process when making decisions that have implications on civil and human rights. Little good can be achieved interpreting such obvious texts. Judges cannot find excuses to separate long term parent fro their children, that would be in the best interest if there was due process. Communities at large has to accept judicial institutions as fair, before separating children from parents can be accepted. With so much contention regarding family courts in America today, communities accepting such decisions maybe well into the future.

 Maintaining continuity for a child should be included as a major priority when separation from parents and awarding custody of a child is to be effected, no effort should be spared in accomplishing that requirement. With the lives of so many children affected by family court judges, the time has come for law makers to make a concerted effort at ensuring checks and balances that would protect children from separation initiated by family court judged and other judicial institutions.
