The Budget of Paradox

This is interesting and I ask that you spend just a couple of minutes looking at it. In Ohio right now, lawmakers are considering passing a bill called HB 14 that presumes each parent should have 50% custody of the children in a divorce.

Compare this to Virginia, where a custody dispute ends with one winner and one loser. And to fight for custody, you need to spend all of your money on lawyers. I’m sure Nana Lee paid for your mom’s lawyer. After all, your mom was unemployed at the time and had a very expensive lawyer. I didn’t want full custody of you and Morey, just shared. I’m one of those people who think parents have a God-given, natural, and Constitutional right to enjoy the company of their own children and help direct their upbringing. But in the end, I didn’t have as much money as Nana Lee. So, your mother got to be the ‘winner’.

Someone even pointed out that it’s harder to get a nuisance barking dog removed from a neighborhood than it is to remove a father from a child’s life.

Here is a quick video about the proposed law in Ohio. It’s only five minutes. Please watch. I want you to see I’m not alone in my complaints, and I’m not crazy for being upset over my situation.
