And a tiger doesn’t change its stripes either. In the war of custody of children, it’s not uncommon for a mother or father to skip down with their children in order to avoid the possible loss of time with them. Unless it is done to protect the children, and I mean really protect them, not […]

The words have such meaning today, even more than they did when the song was released by Cher. Gypsys, tramps, and thieves. We’d hear it from the people of the town They’d call us Gypsys, tramps, and thieves! And that is exactly what the good citizens of California think, so much that a Task force […]

Imagine this, tens of thousands of troops in Iraq, equipped with the best that our taxes can buy, tanks, jets, helicopters, and all the support that goes with it - and for good reason - to protect our country.

I found this puzzling, and interesting at the same time. We hear of couples slitting up during marital issues all the time.

This story came to my attention because I’ve seen the damage done when false allegations of abuse of a child stem from a nasty divorce. I have lived it. Not only does the accused get destroyed but the child does as well. To quote from the article, “Alleging child abuse is becoming a disturbingly popular […]

We recently reported on a woman being charged and convicted of making false allegations against a child’s father. We were happy to see it take place, since making false accusations is common-place and accepted in family courts.
