In this excellent article in yesterday's New York Times, Robert Emery talks about how divorced parents lose their
rights to make parenting choices when they delegate to the court.
"Divorced parents (or those who never married) can and do sue each other. Judges
routinely decide where the children of divorced parents will attend
school, worship and receive medical care; judges may even decide whether
they play soccer or take piano lessons.
Instead of telling parents how to bring up their children, we should honor — and encourage — agreements between parents. This change could help us move away from litigation and toward alternative kinds of dispute resolution."
