ORIGINAL: Lumus It's sad that society assumes in this day and age that only a woman can raise a child properly; sadder that the only counter offered to that myth up here is if the woman volunteers to surrender the children or is found to be mentally/physically incapable... Lumus, God bless you and your lil one. I understand what you are saying all too well. There are way too many locales who still use this archaic "tender years doctrine," whereby the child should stay with the mother until he or she is of school age, at which time custody may be revisited. It's crap. Not all women are fit to have the little ones with them. It's garbage. I'm pissed with you, my dear friend. I'm pissed along with the wonderful fathers who are not permitted the chance to raise their babies because some piece of legislature says so.
