Rent Broken: My Fight to Stop the Harmful Effects of Custody Laws

Synopsis

Broken is the story of one parent's custody battle and his campaign to help families avoid conflict. F rom his experience, Joseph Cowles learned that custody is an inflammatory concept, which, when disputed, can rip families apart. Sole parental custody awards the major decision making responsibilities for a child to one parent, while legally disenfranchising the other. It is a volatile arrangement, one that shouldn't exist. This book tells Cowles' story and chronicles the steps he took to find and implement a better path to coparenting for families facing separation. He proposes a solution that considers the best interests and welfare of children, offers equal opportunity to parents, and better assists families into the next phase of their lives, while preserving the integrity and balance of the family. This book will be an asset for parents facing custody challenges and is a must-read for those who are shaping family law legislation.
