File this under "No Sh*t"

Which is a good thing, as more and more states are moving toward joint custody and equal time with the kids in divorces.  Judges are looking at the shrieking harpies with a jaundice eye when it comes to "bad parenting" accusations.  Iit has been refreshing to watch it first hand.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Sounds like research catching up to reality.

As my shooting buddy, a lawyer, once said, "Most DR (domestic relations) law is driven by wet mascara."

Automatically give divorced dads 50% physical custody of the kids, and no child support assigned for either parent.

Then see the divorce rate drop, as women decide that being married to their husband isn't so horrible after all.

Considering that many more homes these days have both parents working, that isn't so bad a plan.
