DeleteThe "scandal" for MEGALI, the Maine Guardian ad litem Institute, is that some "bad sports" say there is a scandal. One MEGALI board member is said to have reported that she knows she has made the correct decision in a custody case when the one awarded custody has "no complaints"
ReplyDeleteIt sounded like circular reasoning to us. MEGALI is full of "circular reasoning". It is also seen in the useful GAL rationalization: "Not in your child's best interest". When a GAL refuses to explain his/her bill, give reasons for his/her decisions, or explain the need for 'ex parte' communications with the judge. How do we know about what is in "a child's best interest"? Who says so and why? Isn't it an arguable point?
Oops, ... our "inner bad sport" is showing!
It is like the oft quoted: "Because, I'm the "Mommy" and I say so!"
