What if the mother was a Muslim or Satanist or even a Jehovah Witness, and the father spoke heretical speech about those religions, would the use of government as being used in this situation be justified?
BLOG OUT
Mormon Disclosures is on a blog black out...read on about why...
In 2014, I filed for a change in court so that I might see my tween/teen children more. Each of my tween/teen children wants to move from Provo to come to live with me in Florida. Their mother would only allow visits of 2-weeks in the summer and a week in the winter, with some spring break time. Their mother gave for reason, on October 10, 2012 that:
This happened in the middle of my media-storm over the Romney articles that landed me in LDS church discipline. That kind of a parenting-time denial continued over the next year. In early 2014, after I appealed to the court for reprisal, a Utah County Court Commissioner ordered a custody evaluation to be performed in 90 days by a local psychologist whose name is very familiar in Utah, and who I will call Dr. Lightweight to protect his identity. After about a year since the evaluation was ordered, Dr. Lightweight completed his evaluation in the last half of May 2015 and reported the following to the Commissioner:"While I would normally try to work with you on seeing the children while you are in town regardless of whether or not it is court-ordered parenting time, you have made it clear in recent days and weeks that you cannot leave your vendetta against the church alone and you cannot keep your views to yourself in the presence of your children. It is harmful to them to hear you attack the religion they were raised in and the religion of their mother and extended family members. I have tried to avoid drawing attention to your situation but for you to give them a distorted version of the story that paints you as some kind of hero while most members of the community here see your behavior as a betrayal and a lack of honor and integrity is cruel...
If you can agree to leave this topic alone when you visit, I will be happy to discuss arrangements for you to visit with the children."
In the "Recommendations" Section of his evaluation, Dr. Lightweight specified "Religion" as one of the primary reasons for his basis of denying me custody in his evaluation to the commissioner. (In fact, Religion is the only criteria that came out negative solely for me.)"...David had difficulty with the January [2]8 2008 court order to encourage the children to participate and attend church with her mother. David sent letters to bishops refusing his children be baptized.
"To say the least, David is a very influential parent. His thoughts on religion do not go unnoticed by the children. David has remarked that he believes he is entitled to speak to the children about those issues. In fact, those thoughts he expressed, have caused all of the children (even the older ones) to doubt their religious beliefs up until the time they were raised in 2008. Unfortunately, most children may not begin "solidifying" religion until after their teen years. Any paramount parent who expresses religious disbelief will often [a]ffect the child's "belief" system. Hence, these children tend to follow their father regarding his belief system on religion, even though there is an Order against providing religious information to the children they did not aligned with religious upbringing of the children....
"Moreover, David believes that he can speak with his children about these areas at any time. Presently, they choose their father's beliefs. This has taken effect for children whose moral belief systems are not entirely in full force."
Hence, my blog is on black-out until I know that my speech will not be used against me in the Utah Court to deny me custody of my children.
