This poor girl is suffering. This mother needs a reality check. Shame on her. -CM Sat, 15 Dec 2007 10:34:31 -0500 Guest comment 3598 at https://www.firstwivesworld.com https://www.firstwivesworld.com/relevant-news/wiveswire/what-about-the-kids <p>In the Czech Republic, there is a battle taking place over little Tereza. Young Tereza is 10 and her parents have been fighting for her custody for eight years.</p> <p>The father claims that the mother is poisoning Tereza's mind against him, and I lean to believe him. Tereza apparently has full emotional breakdowns just at the thought of seeing her Dad. The mother claims that it's because he's a stranger to the Tereza. </p> <p>Now perhaps it's just me, but I think that if the mother sat down with the daughter and said, &quot;your father is a good man and he just wants to spend time with you and get to know you as a father should&quot;, then Tereza would be good to go. </p> <p>Since the parents couldn't work out a visitation schedule on their own, the judge ordered Tereza to live in a mental institution. This isn't because she's ill, but because the judge felt she needed time away from her mother. Tereza is said to be behaving very well at the institution. She's had regular visits from both her parents, but has not formed a better relationship with her father. </p> <p>It's sad to me that the judge ordered the daughter to spend time in the institution when it is clearly the parents — especially the mother — who should be spending time in a mental facility. They're not looking out for the welfare of their daughter — they're acting selfish and petty. If they cared anything about Tereza they would put all their issues aside and focus on what really counts — raising a healthy, well-adjusted daughter with the mental foundation to not only function but excel in society. </p> <p>What are you opinions? How do you feel about the judges decision and what would you do in this situation?</p> <p>Click <a href="https://www.radio.cz/en/article/98438">here</a> for more.</p> https://www.firstwivesworld.com/relevant-news/wiveswire/what-about-the-kids#comments child custody children of divorce divorce divorce community divorce news kids and family mind and spirit moving beyond divorce Mind and Spirit Kids and Family Moving Beyond Divorce Fri, 14 Dec 2007 14:00:00 -0500 WivesWire 3205 at https://www.firstwivesworld.com
