    Default Interview For Becoming a Non-Professional Supervisor for Visitation

    My question involves a child custody case from the State of: CA

    In two weeks, my parent will appear in the court to answer questions from judge to be non-professional supervisor to my son. I have a mis-demeanor domestic violence to my ex two years ago and now in supervised visitation for one and half year. I have no violence to my son.

    The problem is in my former psychiatrist report showed my parent had physical violence to each other before(without any crime committed). So my ex proposed that she worried that my parent will think violence to child is normal. I think the judge will ask questions to my parent about this. But I donot know how it would be. What kind of questions shall I prepare for my parent?

    What I can think of to explain this is:
    1. My parent pushed each other 30 years ago. After they are 40 years old, they have no physical violence.
    Or I can say there is no violence before and my parent testify that they had no violence before.
    2. Since my parent has no crime record before, what my ex proposed is irrelevant.

    Please advise.

    Many thanks.

    Anyone who has been married that long, has at one time or another enacted a verbal or physical assault against the other, which would technically be illegal. If they haven't murdered each other after 30 years. they are pretty well grounded and reliable.

    Fortunately, it sounds like your parents only had one violent incident in the past with each other and none after that. If that's the case, even if your ex brought the issue up and the judge believed it, it would have very little negative effect against your parent's character and fitness as guardians to your child. If he brings it up, have your parents explain that it was a sole isolated incident that never happened again and that they've been together ever since the incident and have learned and grown since it occurred.

    However, I highly doubt the judge will view it too negatively. Judges are looking for repeated patterns negative behavior in determining who isn't fit to be a guardian. Isolated single incidents usually don't hold much sway. Good luck.

    I disagree given this OP's circumstances.
