As we reaffirm our vision for healthy communities as the most effective way to build healthy families, we acknowledge the discrepancy among our urban, suburban, exurban, and rural municipalities in their different population densities, and their fiscal and administrative capacity.

  1. Anna came to our hearing and told her personal story of a family that is affected by a divorce and the effect on her nephew. She spoke in support of the Shared Parenting Initiative in Massachusetts. As an immigrant who has been a citizen for over 25 years she felt that while America offers the promise of equality in so many areas, that there is not guarantees to equal parenting rights.

    Equal parenting laws would stop the damage to families and the suffering of children who are separated from a parent. The best interest of the child should be the primary focus, and they need and desrerve the beneit of both parents. If both parents are fit then they should both have the right to shared parenting. Parenting should not be based on gender alone.

    Not only would this be in the best interest of the child, but it would also free up the courts to deal with other issues.
