Embrace the Therapeutic Justice Idea into Family Law Proceedings?

CoParenting Gaff Results in Losing 3 Year old for 2 Days: "I Thought He Was With You!"

Little Dion had finished his 3rd Birthday Party at the local Ceasarland Pizza place and was found wandering around the arcade by himself, wandering aimlessly... This was Saturday at around 8 p.m. He did not say his name or who dropped him off or who held the party or anything except "pizza" and "ice cream." On Monday afternoon, the pizza joint's staff called the police and said that the parents and grandmother were wondering if they had seen this 3 year old. Each of the parents (who lived in separate households... or maybe separate planets?) thought that Dion had gone home after the party with the other parent or with the grandmother. No one communicated with the other parent, nor, presumably with the grandmother (who I will bet gets blamed in the end) about how Dion liked his party, his pizza or his ice cream. The little boy is still in protective custody. Does this underscore the importance of communicating as coparents, even if you don't necessarily "like" each other? Great job, pizza joint employees! Final Score: Pizza joint employees, 10 - Parents of Dion, 0.
