[QUOTE="DDD, post: 256424, member: 35"] My point wasn't that I was a wonderful GAL, my point was that it is a toss up and "even" when someone like me tries their very best it is difficult and very stressful to represent the "best interests of the child" objectively. The GAL appointed to your child may be a complete loser...BUT, even if she is a loser, her perception of what was best differs from the parental view of what's best. How much your bro entered into it, I don't know. If the GAL really did her best, I don't know. Based on your posts she has been able to maintain a relationship with your son. That sounds like she is trying...even if misdirected, lol. My CD friend, the bottom line is that the Court date is over. You truly can not change what has happened and it is like attacking windmills to even keep trying to revisit it. It is helping nobody to hash and rehash what should have been or could have been. My two cases were posted to show that "playing God" with a child's life is not easy even when you are an honest person trying your best. It made me cry, pace and vomit. Life experience tells me that you need to put on blinders to the past and move forward for your sake and very importantly for yours son's too. DDD [/QUOTE]
