News Reports
That case in Utah that I mentioned a few days ago has popped up again, this time on a religious page called LifeSite, where the article is titled Natural Mother Punished By Lower Court While Former Lesbian Partner Gets Visitation Award. Interestingly, the end of that article includes a link to the Salt Lake Tribune’s story, Custody case spotlights couples’ parental rights. The reason I find this interesting is because the LifeSite article contains so much dizzying spin that I’m surprised they’d link to a more legitimate (unbiased) news outlet which tells the story in a very different way.
In the Tribune article, I noticed this:
She says visitation that has occurred since she moved from Utah to Texas in May has been traumatic for her daughter, who is having nightmares and calling several people “Mommy.”
If anybody believes the birth mother’s statement that it is the visitation that has traumatized the little girl, I owe them a smack across the face. It’s obviously the move and the visitation battle that’s causing problems for this four-year-old, not the visitation itself.
