Actually, I think it should be, "If you wanna know if what your thinking is legally right, lawyer.com, morally right, support.com, what the other side will think of it, DS..."
We DO serve a purpose. If one of us, OUTSIDE the situation, sees a loophole, you dang sure know that a decent lawyer will as well. Sometimes knowing what the spin will be helps you to prepare to slam on the brakes in court.
I think about some of the crap I did during my divorce, I am NOT proud of all of it. Some I never speak of (I bet we ALL have that). If I can help someone else see the other side, so be it. If you think my tone is abrasive, get used to it, because if it goes to court, and you have to sit on the stand, you will be asked to state you inner feelings and thoughts.
Here is a real life example, from me. I sat in the stand, her lawyer firing question after question, and he says, "Isn't it true that {gr8Dad's daughter) is not your biological child?"....
In my head, I know that the TRUE answer is what I have to give, and in saying that ONE "yes", I could legally severe all ties to her. That the judge could have, legally, never allowed me to see her again. It was the hardest answer I ever had to give. I broke down crying, got a 2-3 minute break to calm down, then I answered how I had to, "yes"
Now it worked out, but if you can't handle a few anonymous posters to pick at your story, or situation, compare it to the possible all out WAR that custody creates and the pain of a trial, you will get eaten ALIVE in court.
