Today in court I asked for therapeutic visitation. I said we need to reduce conflict in the presence of my (child) client. But if the parent needs corrective guidance, it should be done with dignity and outside the presence of the child. If we ignore the dignity of the parent and undercut his authority with his child, how do we expect successful reunification and amelioration of the problems? We don’t need to embarrass and hurt parents who need help getting it right.
