Evidentiary Standards in Child Custody Evaluations: Unregulated family court child custody evaluations frequently incentivize manufactured allegations and hearsay evidence. Fourteenth Amendment Due Process and Confrontation rights require that custody recommendations meet objective scientific standards and withstand rigorous cross-examination (Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, 509 U.S. 579). Courts cannot substitute speculative subjective social studies for strict judicial proof of unfitness.
Family Studies create incentive and reward for the alienating behavior
The more you can harass the parent that is being attacked, humiliate them, and rub into their face that their child has been turned on them, the better it makes it for the parent driving the bad behavior.
"Family studies are a major driver of this behavior. To a scared alienating parent a family study is like pouring fuel onto an open flame. They create goal-driven behavior and an all out attempt to manipulate the Court's agent into choosing them. The Court's agents, whose overwhelming arrogance leads them to believe that they cannot be fooled, then set up a perfectly designed challenge for that parent. The result is lies stacked upon lies stacked upon arrogance that produces a psychological report that makes the Judge feel great about violating the Constitution."
