Federal and state laws have provided many tools to enforce child support, but attorneys are left to their own ingenuity to devise effective means to ensure that the parent-child relationship is protected in the face of obstinate hostility. Initial, specific visitation orders will stop future relitigation. The time has come for the rights of children to be upheld. Children's needs have been ignored and their rights abrogated by the partisan politics of child support. Depriving a child of the love, nurturing guidance and support of a loving parent is a blatant abuse of discretion.
Children thrive and grow into healthy adults when they have access to both parents.
