Nice post Sharm..lucid as always..
one little thing..If I walk a mile in your high heels I’m going to have issues.

Well- it’s like how my personal experience watching a man fight for custody of his child has colored my view of family law. If I were a judge in that position, I would hope that those experiences would benefit the children before me. That I could know to look at both parents to see what’s best for the child(ren) and not just assume the mother is the better parent, as is often the case in family court. Sometimes the dad is the better option for custody. I would hope I could be fair but I admit my experience is what has led me to conclude the family courts are full of misandy.

Should this prevent me from being a judge in family court?
