The divorce industry is a dangerous, nasty business.
I read a book called Joint Custody with a Jerk several years ago to help one of my families. The book is even-handed, realistic, practical and covers many topics. It tells you ways to make changes in your life so the divorce devastation is minimized.
I’ve been an expert witness in many custody cases. You want to steer clear of that cottage industry known as custody evaluations.
No professional can understand the intimate dynamics of a family through a single assessment.
The answers to the most frequently used psychological tests have been posted online by parents’ groups. Now, those tools can’t be used to determine a parent’s mental health and competence to raise a healthy child.
It’s a losing battle all the way around except for custody evaluators and attorneys. Don’t play and don’t pay. Find another way.
