divorced from justiceI am very interested in this concept. I've always felt many of us are less than" a voice crying out in the wilderness ". Constance Rice( Dir. of an internat'l Org. for women") stated that you can judge the effectiveness of a country's democracy by how it treats it's women.The laws that are written provide more loopholes to men. Women, who are usually left in a divorce to be the sole providers, protectors, disciplinarians, etc.for the children are too busy working & overwhlemed by their responsibilities to maintain a healthy environment for the children. I believe more attention needs to be paid to the fact that children who have fathers involved in their lives are less likely to descend into criminal behavior. They need to feel safe and valued. I think we're at the wrong end of the river in dealing with the young people that end up in the court system. Do you know there's a law that allows a man to not honor his divorce agreement if it is incorporated & merged into a family court Doc. because then it no longer is a civil court doc.that stands alone? it has to say incorporated but not merged. If the woman's lawyer wants to pad his bill & get the man to pay he can have the last line typed up in a way to protect the man's interests. Having been a victim of this situation, I'm very interested in seeing this investigated. Margaret
