Children's
Rights
Children, whose divorcing parents are involved in a custody
dispute, should have the right
» Not to be asked to choose sides
» Not to be told the nasty details of the legal proceedings
» Not to be told "bad things" about the other parent
» Not to be quizzed about the other parent
» Not to be used as a messenger between parents
» Not to be asked to tell lies about the other parent
» Not to be a parent's legal confidant
» To express their feelings and to choose not to express
certain feelings
» To be shielded from parental "warfare"
» Not to feel guilty for loving both parents
