Presume divorce: The court wants me to exterminate my own family while I'm innocent of charges
Read excerpts of a letter from my attorney explaining how they want me to terminate my own family, and I may be punished if I speak the truth -- that I want to save my children's intact home.  The court wants me to voluntarily split our children between two broken homes, and split our assets, while I repeatedly claim I'm innocent of the charges.

The current practices of courts and attorneys stem from the belief that it is best for someone to do what makes themselves feel good regardless of how it affects the children, the spouse or the whole community. A new breed of therapists can help our children.
