I hate to go against the grain. But I know a woman who is being mentally slaugthered by her ex partner and his current partner to such a degree, that she is suffering from severe depression. They have considerably more money and therefore, are more able to 'bribe' the children. And don't tell me children can't be bribed! I saw the same situation many years ago,only in that instance, the woman had the money. And that's the direction the children went.
The changes to the Family Law by the Howard GOvernment certainly lead to a more level playing field. Unfortunately, you can't legislate against human deceipt and selfishness!
