I am a custody lawyer. Also a father, and I know what I would do. But I recently spoke with someone that told me that I suck at my job, so I would like to know what others think outside of my little legal bubble. Let’s say that you went to court, had a trial, and the judge was concerned that you were a danger to your kid. So, the judge orders some anger management, parenting classes, a psych eval, and other treatment as recommended by the eval. In the meantime, you are only given a few hours of parenting time a couple of times a week. And it has to be supervised by a paid supervisor. Let’s assume you have the means to comply. You are still a working man, so its a serious pain, but the money is not the real issue. You feel that the Court believed lies, and the outcome was unjust. Do you take the classes, get the eval, and visit your kid with a stranger hanging around? Or do you fight things legally to the fullest extent possible, refusing to exercise the restricted parenting time? submitted by /u/IamTotallyWorking
