520 _aThis paper examines various issues facing the Family Court system, ranging from professional standards and psychological syndromes, to social policy issues. The author posits that the Family Court does not support fathers in custody and access cases, and suggests both parents should be encouraged by the Family Court to be involved in their child's life. The author also contends that false allegations of domestic violence are common, particularly when used by the mother to obtain quick and easy custody of a child. The practice by the Family Court of not differentiating between truthful and false domestic violence allegations is not considered by the author to be jurisprudent. This paper supports further examination into the competence of the Family Court, and its role and function in society.
