Wow! That's broad!

You need to pay an attorney to sit down with them and "pick their brain" for an hour!!

The main question asked is "what is in the best interest of the child"? That question is never defined in the Texas Family Code so it's left up to each individual judge to answer. That is the $1 dollar answer!
