[QUOTE="muttmeister, post: 187503, member: 135"] I live in Nebraska and I have to admit that, while I have heard a little about this law, I wasn't really sure of what it said. I'm not totally sure about what I think about this law. Although there were times I might have liked to drop one or both of my kids off theoretically, I can't imagine actually doing it even in a fit of temper. I kinda think that if it has reached the point where a parent is able psychologically to actually do that, maybe it's not such a bad idea for a separation. It is also worth noting the the average size of a town in Nebraska is somewhere around 300 people (that statistic just came out last week; I am not making it up). Things that apply in a rural environment are not necessarily things that apply in an urban environment. You are not likely to lose track of your child in any circumstance, considering that almowt everybody in a radius of 50 miles knows the kid, the parent, and the problems. Services here for problem kids are almost nonexistent unless you live in one of the two decent sized cities in the eastern part of the state. I'm sure this law needs some work and some refining but I'm not sure it is a bad idea. [/QUOTE]
