Letters to the Editor Arm Parents to Prevent Child Abuse

Summary


In bringing constructive reform to the policies and practices that had a bearing on the Leland Valdez case, we hope that care will be given to ensure that fathers and mothers are treated with equal fairness in child-custody cases.

Let's take this moment to resolve that we make prevention our first priority by supporting increased parent-education programs for both fathers and mothers. We look to all the stakeholders here: the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government, the schools, and all state and local agencies concerned with child health and welfare to form the intention and allocate the resources to provide this critical support to parents.
