Ben-Levi: I’m glad you now agree with me that the best interest of the child is the criterion by which to decide custody. I have never said that the behavior of a parent doesn’t go into that decision. The question is whether the initiator is automatically disfavored. The answer is only as much as it affects the best FUTURE interest of the child. People have a hard time being pragmatic and get stuck on the blame game. Such fallacies have even less a place, and are even more destructive, when dealing with the kids.
