1 and because she is a woman, besides being his mother, and being that too many judges feel that only a woman can raise a child, this druhken woman will retain custody of this poor child, until the next beating he recieves or until the mother murders him, accidentaly or not...ive seen it way too may times and im sure many others have as well...and no im not being sexist or biased, but we all know that many judges feel that only a woman/mother can raise children...if this was a man beating his child, you all know how fast the courts are too strip the father of his custody rights and tossed in jail....of course if there is definite proof of this, the father beating his child to the point of serious/life threatning injury, than it would be right for him to loose his custody rights but too many times the "proof" is made up by the child and/or the mother and its all very sad that a father in such a case is by all chance doomed

2 Thanos: Don't you know that men are pack mules and nothing more.

3 Wow, that sounds like a bunch of blathering self pity. Don't be too sure that she retains her parental rights! I've also seen a number of dad's on the "father's rights" bandwagons who are violent and predatory...not saying that's you of course but sheesh. What is this, a race to the bottom, to see who's the biggest victim?

4 The sad thing is that Kim was probably beaten with a NASCAR David Pearson replica die cast car or hit with a bowling trophy when she was growing up. How do you break the cycle of PWT?

5 What is sad, my sister is a lawyer in Denver. She took on a bono child custody case for a mother who turned gay. Her ex, was just getting out of jail for attempted murder. The judge awarded it the custody to the husband because the husband was straight and because he "served his time", while the mother was still proclaiming to be gay. (Begin sarcasam) Lesbie/attempted Murder, that is an easy choice, the Murder. (End Sarcasm).

6 Butch, maybe your sister is just a crappy lawyer.

7 Or Charles, maybe the judge was some homophobe right wing conservative, who fears gays more then he does murderers. Also my sister has told me that out of cases where you can win or lose, she wins twice as many as she loses, and most losses are due to Right Wing Conservative. You go figure.

8 Bullshit!

9 She took on a bono? Ha, ha, ha. Great Butch great. Got to be a democrat.
