Arkansas lawmakers pass bill to level playing field in child custody cases

“There are plenty of counties, however, around the state of Arkansas where if you’re the dad you might as well just understand that you’re going to be demoted to a visitor once you get divorced,”

Our current system is a disaster that works AGAINST the best interest of the kids.

This isn't enough. This bill only means that dads no longer have to prove that they're worthy of having their kids over for the weekends. AKA "joint custody". Instead the mom has to prove the dad is dangerous to the kids to deny weekend overnights. This law does NOT mean that kids get both parents 50/50 by default, e.g. "shared custody".

This is progress however. Keep going! Next Arkansas should penalize parents who try to take away their child's time with the other parent.

It is a step in the right direction. But as long as a woman's word carries more weight than a man's word in the legal system, men are going to keep getting screwed over in custody battles. "He's abusive your honor.." is all it takes to swing the favor back towards the woman.
