Member of family geing arrested for drugs or anything ... that has no bearing unless the child is to be in same household as the drug abuser.





Your lawyer can subpoena the phone company to prove some call was made, but it is he said she said what the substance of the phone call was, unless you are recording all your calls %26amp; if you are doing that, then there are some legal mandates you have to floow, to avoid getting in trouble ... basically you are not allowed to record people phone calls without their knowledge.





Lawyer subpoena records also to show financial ability to pay child support.





Lawyer can subpoena, or ask judge for an order, to the therapist to produce mental health records of persons in the same houselhold as the child.





Ditto with respect to school records, correlated with which parent had custody at the time, and what kind of progress (if any) was made resolving the various problems.





One side can call DCF to have the home inspected where the child is, to see about any activity that places the child at risk ... watch out, other side can also play this card. Now lawyer can subpoena DCF inspection report %26amp; there you have specific evicence of what might otherwise be he said she said.





Include in the call to DCF the issues of


* porn the kid has access to


* profanity in the home in the presence of children


* the various kinds of corporal punishment (hitting the body)


* ages of children left unattended





Lack of religious is a preference betwen mother father, it probably has very little bearing on judicial consideration. Actually other direction can have bearing ... if one side is religious fundamental saying the other parent will go to hell, or will cause the child to go to hell ... the judges tend to frown on that a whole lot more than no religion at all.





Saying that hell is imaginary, that is like a form of racism against religion. But you gotta be able to prove that.





Perhaps get the judge to ask the child, carefully so as not to put words into mouth.


* what anyone said to the child about hell


* forms of disciplne such as by the babysitter
Reply:OMG - file for IMMEDIATE TEMPORARY CUSTODY on the basis that the child%26#039;s life is in danger and the parent is not mentally capable of caring for the child.








GET THAT KID OUTTA THERE....
