Most likely that won’t matter to her nearly as much as having caused pain to him.
French Canada?
Figures
read the whole article..this action was prodded by the Mother..betchya it was a very ugly divorce. The two girls can live together and be miserable together.
"...for me that was really important, because it was the end of elementary school, it was the end of a stage in her life."
Sadly for the kid, it might be the start of another stage in her life, a stage of life where she can post inappropriate pictures on the computer for any creepy pervert on the prowl who happens by, a stage of self-destutructive freedom where the indulgence of a lax mother with issues is apparently backed up by lunacy from the courts.
Link to story with more on the angle of the girl:
There is no complex context. The father had custody, and the judge should have sent the girl back to the father. Case closed. Instead, the mother now has a little girl who expects the courts to side with her any time she wants to behave in a manner that responsible adults consider inappropriate for her age. I hope she still thinks getting back at the father was worth it when she's the target of this little girl's next court case.
I've never liked anything about this book, despite the people who consider it a classic, but mother and daughter need to read it together. It wouldn't surprise me if it foreshadows their future issues.
Mother and daughter are headed for trouble as a team. I hope one day the girl will grow up to appreciate what her dad was trying to do for her.
Question: If the father had full custody, most certainly, that was granted in a court, yes?
Wouldn’t the judge that gave him custody look down on another judge stepping on his decreed rights as the legal custodian of the child?
Logic aside, what in the world is the matter with the nit-wit that sided with the 12 year old??! What’s next? Emancipation for 12 year olds??
