CLASSROOM TEACHER (Mr. Hummert):
Mr. Hummert Is very ooncerned about her grades this marking period
(2/24/00): There has been a downward trend, slnoe the first marking
period, d..plte teacher and 1ST Interventions
Language Arts- D; Reading- E; Math.. D; Science/Health- E; Social
Studies- D
Factors contributing to these problems Include her Inability to follow
directions, lack of day to day carryover and retention of skills or conoepts
learned previously: organization problems even with the uee of graphic
organizer., poorly developed number senS8, word calling when reading
with no comprehension of what she has read (either orally or silently); her
writing skills are weak and handwriting Is Illegible.
In Reading Lab, Emily needs constant reminders to pay attention. She
exhibits attention seeking behaviors, such as calling out Inflammatory
remarks and then looking around to see If she has gotten a reaction. Otten
she pretends to read, especially when /Jummarlzlng the portion Is the task
at hand. Even In this small group, she Is distracted by any activity and
struggles to complete her work, within the time frame.
In Math, even with manipulative, graphic organizers, etc., she Is struggling
with multiplication and division facts and concepts. Sh. receives Title I
support every day with an aide and/or the title I teacher, so there Is
plenty of one.on-one or small' group Instruction, yet she cannot remember
from one day to the next what she learned previously. Problem solving
strategies are almost undeveloped.
Emily's performance In the classroom Is now. almost completely
compromised. She has reached a ceiling for task compliance Is now coping
by copying work from her neighbor's paper (which causes social
diffiCUlties) or by writing down any unrelated answer.
"Emily'. frustration Is of grave concern." She no longer takes home work
for parent signatures, chews on her fingers and hands until they are sore.

She darta her tongue In and out while sitting listening to a story. She's
particularly weak In the content areas (map skills etc.) and .. thr:y a'e
Instructed In the atternoon, she's not well equipped with energy or tocus
to adequately benetlt trom Instruction.
-
Her relationships with her peers and with her teachers have deteriorated
and, theretore, her acting out has escalated, "She halS been caught In the
act ot 'teallng by me and lied about how the stolen Items ended up in her
backpack, saying that the other children must have put the Items there In
order to get her Into trouble. She complains that she doesn't like her
clae,mllt" and that they won't play with her, but she rarely Initiates play
with anyone, choosing rather to play by herself or Just sit during recen

CLASSROOM ODSER V A TIONI
Emily was observed on 02/22/00 from 10:30 to 11 :00 am. The clase was
Involved In langua'ge arts and Iltudent. were learning about pronoun=..
After repeated practice orally as a clal8 and then Individually, the cla88
wal required to perform 22 problems wherQ they had to Identify the
correct/missing pronoun for the sentence. Emily was on-tll8k during this
observation. Her Independent work habits Indicate that she attemptl to
perform the work but will look to others for assistance. She needs
frequent reassurance and support from the teacher. She appears unsure of
what to do at times and lacks eell confidence In her academic ability.
After each answer she would look to me or to a Irlend to determine II It
was correct. A quick review of her paper Indicates that she did have some
difficulty with Identifying the correct pronoun even with the reputed
practice. Emily herself reports that language arts are difficult for her In
clals. Her work hablte were slower than the majority of her peers on this
pronoun assignment.
DEHA VIORAL OBSERVATIONS DURING INDIVIDUAL TESTING:
Emily's perceptual difficulties were evident on the first subtest (Picture
Completion). Her Initial responsss bore no relation to the task demand.
For example, she would look at an early presentation of a cat missing
whisker. and state that the dog was missing, Standard testing procedures
were abandoned and Emily was directed to find only what was missing In
the picture, not off of It. She was then able to get the next response
correct, but could not leave the gestalt and focus upon portions of It,
afterwards. Her pattern of correct responses was highly uneven and
Indicative 01 neurological . Involvement. Her perceptual/neurological
difficulties abounded when, on a very early/young math problem, she was
presented with a picture of twelve Christmas trees and was asked to
cover a certain number of them with a card, to leave nine trees showing.
She had great difficulty with this task and finally turned the card
vertically, the width of which, covered up three of the trees. Emily's
frustration with perceptual tasks was most evident during puzzle
construction. Her problem solving approach was to take a semi-ordered
layout of puzzle pieces and push them about, on the desk, with two
flattened hands, until they were In total disarray.

Th..e neurologloal difficulties persisted when she was asked to answer
queetlonl about school learned Information, Thinking about the previous
qu..tlon Intruded upon the next subsequent answer as almost a memory
dYlfunctlon oalled "retroactive Inhibition." For example, Emily was able
to name the four seasons of the year. When she was next asked," How
many things wer.: In a dozen?", she responded...four. When she was next
.eked how many hours were In a day, she r8llponded, twelve. Emily also
per..v.rated on the novelty of being permitted to chew gum. She
continually asked questions about the event, about being caught, about her
sliter being permitted to chew gum In high Ilchool. Her social
comprehension was apparent, when she asked why children were not
permitted to chew gum In elementary sohool. When the examiner could not
answer the question, Emily replied, If Older kids know what to do wit h
their gum."
Throughout the testing, her hyperactivity very apparent. She was restless
and squirmy and at the very end of the session, she was almost vibrating
as shs e.t up on her heels. Her attention to visual detail was almost non.
existent and compromised primarily by her persistent Impulsivity to come
up with any answer. This same Impulsivity required many Instancos 0 f
redirection as she tended to grab or flip stimulus cards before they were
to be presented.
The first Indication that Emily experlenoes emotional reactions to
performance demands was when, on tho very first sUbtest, she asked I f
her response was correct six times. Throughout the testing, Emily
displayed a compulsive heed to receive positive feedback, Questions such
88, "How'd I do?; What's my grade? Am I right?" continued with almost
Insistent frequency.

Interpretltlon of WISe.1I1 R..ultl
Emily may experience difficulty In keeping up with her peers in a wide
variety of eltuatlons that require age-appropriate thinking and reaeonlng
.bllltl... Her general cognitive ability Is within the borderline range 0 f
Intelleotual functioning, III mealurltd by the Wechsler Intelligence Scale
for Children.. Third Edition. Her overall reasoning abilities exceed those
of approximately 5% of children her age (FSla .. 75; 90% confidence

She performed significantly better on verbal Ihan on nonverbal reasoning

confldenoe Interval '" 82 - 93). Her nonverbal reasoning abilities are
Intellectually deficient and above those of approximately 2% of students
Emily's age (Pia.. e8; 90% confidence Interval II e4 - 78).
Emily's abilities to sustain attention, concentrale, and exert mental
control are better developed than her verbal reasoning abilities. MenIal
control Ie the ability to attend to and hold Information In sharI-term
memory while performing some operallon or manipulation with II. Emily
's ability to exert mental conlrol Is within Ihe average range and be tle I'
than that of approximately 53% of her age-mates (Freedom from
Distractibility Index II 101; 90% confidence Inlerval .. 93 - 109).
Emily's performance was significantly better on Ihe Coding sublest than
her own mean score for all nonverbal reasoning tasks. The Coding sub test
required Emily to use a key to associate a series of symbols with a series
of shapee and to use a pencil 10 draw Ihe symbols next to Ihe shapes. A
direct test of speed and accuracy, the Coding subtest assesses ability In
quickly and correctly scanning and sequencing simple visual Information.
Performanoe on this subtest also may be Influenced by short-term visual
memory, attention, or visual-motor coordination (Coding scaled score ..

Mathematic.
In overall mathematlca skills Emily performed In the average range, as
Indicated by her Mathematics Composite standard score (91). ~owever,
her achievement In this area Is bottor than that of only approximately 27%
of students her age. Emily's performance on tasks that required her to
write dictated numerals up to two digits and 10 add and subtract one-digit
numbers (Numerical Operations standard scoro '" 87) Is comparable to her
performance on tssks that required hllr to understand elementary number
conoepts, Including unit and geometric measurement and simple one-step
word problems (Mathematics Reasoning standard score = 96).
Langueg.,
Emily performed In the low average range on tasks that required her to
Identify the picture that best represents an orally presented word and to
answer questions pertaining to orally presented passages as Indicated by
her Listening Comprehension standard score (81). Her skills In this area
exceeded those of only approximately 10% of students her age.
Writing
Emily's skills In writing are diverse and may not be adequately
summarized by a single number. She scored much higher on tasks that
evaluated her ability to correctly spell verbally presented words (Spelling
standard score = 102.) than on tasks that required her to compose and
write a clearly organized and complete letter (Written Expression
standard score", 81), At the outset of the task, Emily began to copy word
for word the directions In front of her. She had not remembered the verbal
directions that were just presented. Because of this variability In her
performance, the Writing Composite standard score (91) may not be the
best summary of her overall skills In writing. Emily's skills In Written
Expression are within the low average ranga and better than those of only
approximately 10% of children her age, Her Spelling subtest score Is
above that of approximately 55% of her peers, placing these skills In the
average range.
Inlllvlduals with nonverbal/perceptual Impairments typically do better
with rote work such as spelling than they do with Integrative tasks, such
as verbal or perceptual reasoning.

SOCIAUEMOTIONAL FUNCTIONINGI
On the Levy anlmBI drawing, the child Is asked to think of three animals
that Interest him/her and to draw and construct a story regarding their
favorite of the three. Their choice and the ensuing story Is considered to
be a projection of self and sometimes a literal representation of wishes,
n.eda or drives.

It Is not within the purview of this ellort to analyze every aspllct of t his
story In p.yohodynamlc terms, It Is obvious; however, that Emily's self
concept Is diminutively small and the overwork with her pencil I .
Interpreted as anxiety and/or depreSlllon In relation to the concept of self.
There Is a need for Joining and being accepted In playas well as oral
dependenoy needs,
Emily'. House.Tree.pereon drawings were all very Immature In execution
and overworked with shading, this latter aspect, again Indicative of an
adjustment reaction of childhood. The person (or self-portrait) had a
cartoon bubble for speaking attached to the mouth. It read., "I don't like
anything about me." A figure was drawn next to the self portrait and I t
responded, "I do like you."
Summary
Emily is an almost e-year-old child who. exhibits the behavioral Indicator.
of ACHO; the uneven cognitive functioning associated with a eevere
nonverbal/perceptual learning disability In addition to a severe delay In
visual-motor Integration. Her general cognitive ability, as estimated by
thlt WISe.lII, Is borderline (FSIO .. 75), Emily's general verbal abilities
were In the low average range (Via.. 87), nnd general nonverbal abilities
were In the Intellectually deficient range (Pia .. ea), Emily's short term
auditory memory Is above average (Digit Recall) and serves as a
compensatory strength.
On the Individual achievement test (WIAT), Emily was able to demonstrate
learning that was better than or commensurate with her verbal 1.0. The

AI ob..rved throughout this assessment, In the classroom, and supported
by the a..umptlon that a medical diagnosis had been made, due to previous

DATEl Monday, October 2/ 1995
pre.ent for the Plaintiff, Michael T. Burke was
attorney Michael L. Bangs, and present for the Defendant/
Jeannine B. Burke was ~ltorn.y Maria P. cognetti.
A divorce complaint was filed on February 4, 1994/
raising grounds for divorce of irretrievable breakdown of the
marriage. No economic claims were raised in the complaint.
Counsel have indicated that the parties will cign and file
affidavits of consent prior to a hearing to be scheduled in
these proceedings so that a divorce can be concluded under
Section 3301(c) of the Domestic Relations Code.
On January 3/ 1995, wife filed

ehe raised the economic issues of equitable
alimony, alimony pendente lite, and counsel

fees and costs.
The parties were married on October 18, 1980, and
separated in August 1993. They are the natural parents of three
children, Molly, born August 8, 19841 Amy/ born December 27/
19871 and tlmily, born April 30, 1991. Emily is a special needs
child and according to wife'S counsel has cerebral palsy. She
is 4 years of age and hopefully when she begins her schooling
she will be placed in the mainstream with other students in the
regular currioulum.
Husband is 41 years of age and resides at 906
Chambers Ridge, York, Pennsylvania, where he lives with a female
friend. Husband is a high school graduate and has had two years
of college. Before attaining his present job as a narcotic
investigator and officer with thd Attorney General'. Office, he
wae a police officer with the Harrisburg city polioe Department.
According to counsel, husband's 1994 gross income was
$35/900.00. Husband does not complain of any health issues.
Husband is currently paying spousal support through the
Cumberland county Domestic Relations Office in the amount of
$34.00 per week and child support in the amount of $216.00 per
week.
Wite is 39 years ot age and resid.s in the marital
home at 404 16th street, New cum~erland, PennsYlvania, with the
three daughter.. She is a high sohool graduate and graduated
trom a two year paralegal program. She is ourrently a teaoher'.
aid. at the w~.t Shore Soheol Distriot where her gross income in
1994 was $8,496.36. Previously wite worked as a paralegal and
her inoome was around $16,000.00 to $lB,QOO.OO per year. This
intormation is aocording te husband'S counsel and wite'. counsel
is going to verify the information. Wite dOQ8 not oomplain of
any health issues. However, with her employment she does not
have any benetits inoluding health insurance so that she would
be required to either go on a direot pay program or use COBRA
benefits available through husband'$ employment in the event of
a divoroe. We will need to know the oost of wite's health
insuranoe at the hearing. Husband olaims that wite is not
working up to capaoity and that she should be able to earn
money in a full-time job. Wife, on the other hand, claims
beoause there is a speoial needs child at home that ehe is
able, at the present time, to go into the job markel on a
tull-time basis.

As indioated, wife is residing with the three
ohildren in ths marital residence at 404 16th Street New
Cumberland, Pennsylvania. Wife hae estimated the value of the
home at $70,000.00 based on an appraisal which was accomplished
when the home was refinanced. Husband, on the other hand,
believes the house has a value of $75,000.00 to $80,000.00.
Either party oan have the property appraised if they desire
prior to the hearing to assist in establishing the market value.
The house is subject to a mortgage with PHH us Mortgaqe. The
mortgage payments inclUde taxes and insuranoe and are $440.00 to
$450.00 per month. Wife is paying the mortgage. The balance On
the mortgage is around $35,000.00. Wife has indioated that she
would like to be able to remain in the home with the three
ohildren.
Husband did not have any pension benefits that were
veeted when he left his job with the Harrisburg city Polioe
Depa~tment. lie has beon working in his current position for
approximately three years and is not vested in the pension with
the commonwealth of Pennsylvania. However, acoording to a
statement attached to husband'S pre-trial statement his
oontributions and interest to 1993 are approximately $5,000.00
whioh is the value we will IIse for husband's pension plus any
interest aoorued on the marital portion to the date of hearing.
At the time of the separation the parties had a
checking and lavinge aocount, and according to couneel, tho.e
fund. were u.ed to pay debt and otherwise the fund. were
dietributed between the partie.. Therefore, the aooountl will
not be ueed in the equitable dietribution computation.
There are a number of vehiclee lieted on the the
pre-trial statlment.. The 1987 Nisean oouneel agree has a value
of $3,000.00. The Nissan is in hueband'. po..ee.ion. Wife ha.
a 198& Pontiao parisienne and she olaiml the car hA. a value
$1,400.00. HUlband o),aims the value i.e $~,OOO.OO. The 19~6
Pontiac wae eold tor $2,500.00 and according to hu.band $500.00
wa. given to wife and the balance ot the $2,000.00 went to pay
oft debts. Wife's counsel hal requelted verification of the
dietribution of the funds received from the sale of thie
vehicle.
We have had some discussion and oonfusion as to the
identity of the Harley Davidson motorcycles and the values and
eale of the motorcycles. Therefore, counsel are requested to
verity what motorcycles the parties owned, whether or not a
motorcycle was lold to pay down tho debt on another motorcyole,
and it 10 the amount of money received from that sale and
applied to the debt. With respect to the 1967 Honda motoroyole,
hu.band claims that motorcyole was premarital and there il no
value for didtribution.
Husband, during the course of the marriage,
collected military items of War World II and has provided a lilt
today of those items with a value placed on eaoh item. Ho has
also on the list stated what items were sold and the monies that
were received. Wife J.s going review t.he list and indicate
whether or not she believes the list is aocurate, wite'l counsel
hae indioated that her client believed that there were
eubstantially more items than husband is showing on the list.
Husband has provided a list to wife's oounsel ot
iteme of household tangible personal property which he would
like to have given to him. He has indicated that if he reoeives
thoee items, he will not make an issue with regard to the other
household tangible personal property remaining in wife's
poeeeesion and we will not need to establish values tor this
property for purposee of equitable distribution. otherwise I
oounsel can have the property appraised if we need to establish
a value.
With regard to marital debts, oounsel have
indioated that all debts are paid but acoording to husband the
souroe of funds used to pay those debts was derived from the
bank acoounts, the sale of military items, the sale of a
motorcycle, and the .ale ot the 1966 Pontiac. Coun.el tor wite
requ..t. that a .tatement ot the account. that were due and
owinq at the time ot .eparation be prQvided and that hu.band
indicate what specitically wa. paid on each account trom the
.ource. indioated BO she can verity whether or nQt hu.band'.
veraion ot the payment ot the debt ie ~oourate.
Accordinq to oouneel, the debt aCloount. open at
.eparetion were a Di.oover oard, a New Cumborland rederal credit
Union aocount, end a Mellon bank oard whioh may have been the
Vi.a card whioh wa. reterred to on hueband'e pre-trial
etat.ment.
Aeide trom the valuation ot asset. and the
determination ot payment ot debt and the source ot tund. to pay
debt, one of the main issues in this oase i. wite being able to
remain in the marital home with the ohildren and at the lame
time provide for husband's payment of the dietribution ot ae.et.
whioh he ie entitled to atter the peroentaqe hae been applied
for the distribution ot assets. Counsel are reque.ted to
prepare a li.t of assets and to provide to eaoh other and the
Maet.r their aeees.ment of the amount of money baeed on their
pre.umed peroentage of di~tribution wite would owe husband to
aooomplish the equitable distribution. At the same tim.,
counsel can 8ugge8t how wite shOUld be required to make the
di.tribution to hU8band ot his share of assets.
Also of importance as an issue i8 the payment to
wite of alimony and how that alimony may be attected by the
80heme ot distribution of assets that counsel may suqgest.
Coun8el are also requested within a month ot
today'e date to file an income and expense statement for their
olient ehowinq current income and expense intormation. The
statement of asset. and values with a suqqested dietribution
should be provided by December 15, 1995, to opposinq ooun..l and
the Maeter.
A hearing J,s scheduled tor Tuesday, February 20,
1996, at 9100 a.m. Notices will be sent to counsel and the

Re: Enforcement of Custody Order
Dear Ms, Burke:
As you are aware, [ represent your ex.husbnnd, ~licl:u1el, in custody proceedings relatlnll
to your dauihters, Molly, Amy and Emily. As you will recall, all parties spent substantial time in
negotiatinll an extensive custody order which would cover numerQUS contingencies In the hope
that future disputes between you and ~lr, Burke could be ilvoided.
We are quite dismayed with your lack of compUance with the present order, For instance,
as you are aware, school vacations are to be shared punuant to Paragraph c (2) oflhe order,
However, you have attempted to involve the police when my cUent exercised his rights url.der the
BiI'eernent tor the girls' Easter spring break, Further, we have tried to wnicably resolve the
summer scheduling and you have requested time periods which are not consistent with periods
allowed you in the order, [ understand you are threatening not to comply.
This letter i3 to advise you thilt we request your letter acquiescing to the time periods
chosen by Mr. Burke for swnmer vacation as set forth in my lerter dated March 27, 1998 to your
counsel of record, Maria Cognerti, Esquire, This confinns the schedule contained In the March
26, 1998 letter to you dated from ~lr, Burke, If I do not receive the confirmation within ten (10)
days oflhe date of this letter, we will have no alternative to file a contempt petition against you 50
as to ensure an appropriate and orderly custody arrangements for the chlldren this sununer,
[ understand from my dientlhat Ms, Cognetti no longer represents you in this matter and
that you have new coumel. I urge you to have your new counsel contact me. Untillhere is a
substitution of record, I urn sending a copy of this cnrrespondence to Ms, Cognettl.

8, Since the parties' separation In 1994, Mother has repellledly ullempted to reslricl
Father's access to the chlldrcn and Interfere wilh his relationship with them
9. In an enort to ensure his time with the children nnd to protect this rellltionshlp, Father
petitioned this Court for modif1cation on October 10, 1996. Aller extensive negotilltions, the pnrfies
agreed upon an intricate and detailed Order which was adopted by this court on April II, 1997. A
copy of the present custody Order dated April II, 1997 is marked as Exhibit" A", lIlIached hereto
and incorporated by reference herein.
10, Even with this detailed Order, Mother has failed to comply with the Order" not only
in its temlS but in its Intent that it is in the children's best interests to promote their relationship with
Father. Father was forced to t1Ie a Petiti()ll for Enforcement on May 14, 1998 so as to ensure his
holiday and summer vacation time with the children and to ensure notitlcatlon when Mother sought
medical or psychologicaltrealll1ent with the children.
II. Father has had to take legal action to restrict Mother's presence on F~ther's property
due to her failure to comply with the existing order which has caused emotional disruption for the
children during Mother's unwarranted visits.
12. Despite shared legal custody, Mother has repeatedly failed to notify Father ofvlulous
signil1cant events In the children's lives. Father avers that Mother's anger and negative leelings
towards him interferes with her duty and responsibility to encourage and support his relationship with
Ihe children. Some recent examples arc as !(lllows.
2
. ii, It was report':d llml Muther hnd recently cnllcd !!nlher n "hnstnnl" nnd cnlled
his slllnillcllllt other (Knthleen Miller) u "witch" illliont uf the children Slw
hilS aiso told Ihe chlldrenlhllt shll hnles !!nther nnd Knthleen
b, Mother hns conllnllnlly rel\lsed III ndvlsc !!.uher uf uny of the children's
doctor IIppointmenls, schoolllll1ctlons, report cnrds despite the pnrties slHlring
Illl!al custody. !!lIther hns I11nde nlTnn/,lements with the schuol princlpullll

every school ur I)xtrncurriculur evcnts The only time he Is uble 10 pnrticipnte
In the children's school t\lIlctions Is if he learns of them lI'um dther the
children ur sOl11e uther source. Muthcr never cOl11municates this intlll'llllllioll.
c, The parties' child, Emily. is experiencing mentnl and emotiunnl upheaval
MOlher placed Emily 011 1~ltalln without even Ilotlfylng !!nther' that such n
decision wns to be mnde. Once alluin, Fnther becnme uWllre of this issue at\er
the llict Irom the school counselur
d, . The children havc reported to !!uther Ihat Mother told them not tutell FlIther
of the days ol1'lI'om school so they would not hnve to spend time with Futher
e, Mother failed to tell FlIther tllllt she enrolled Emily in II support llrOllp lit
school and thllt she nuthorized the schuul psychologist to eVllluate her
f. Father WIIS recently schedulcd to be II helper for Emily's class Valentines Day
party on Febl1lary II, 2000. When Fnther arrived nn huur early su he cuuld
nleet with the principal about sOl11e uf the problems Emily was Imvlng in
school with her peers, hc wlls adviscd tlull Emily wns suspended Ih)111 school
that day lor stealing. Emily had tnken some blnckboard ernsers, pencils and
her teacher's recess whistle. Fathcr was advised that Emily's tcacher spoke to
MOlher about this the day belore.
Shortly "lieI' learning this, Fnther went 10 discuss this sltuntiOll with Emily at
Mother's home wherc Emily was In the Cllre of her elderly grandparents.
Emily appeared to be playing and not at all distressed about being suspended
from school Much later that evening, Father l1nally received a cull 1)-0111
Mother advising him of the suspension. The School Prlnclpnl also feels Emily
was not concerned nboul. hcr suspension.
In discussing this mailer with the children, Father lenrned that a few weeks
earlier Emily hlld been caught stenllng peppermints Ihllll n store Mother
never advised Father uf this Incident
13, Recent stealing episodes hy Emily arc Indicative of the serious problems Emily is
3
presently havinll personally lInd in school. Th~se problems include pOOl' ucnd~mic perllll'lllUnCe,
actlnll out and social isolation by her peers.
14. Emily was evaluated through hel' school by Joanne Wilkon: rhO Ills evident that
Emily requires a more "hands on" and structured approach and additional ~ducational support at
home and in school. Except when she is with FLlther 01' at school, Emily is reccivinlllillle ndull
assistance with her academics.
15. Emily's problems are not only academic. They nre social and developmental. She has
no ftiends her age and Is socially Isolated trom her peers. She is behind in learning aile appropriate
activities, such as jumping rope and riding B bicycle.
16. Father Is desirous and prepared to provide this allelllion and focus tor Emily. Father
is not only willing himself to provide the hands on nllention Emily needs academically but is also
prepared to provide the tutors necessary. Father had contacted the School District to have
specialized educallon classes set up tor Emily and have tutors broughlln for selected problems
17. Father believes Ihat Emily's social Isolation must be addressed immediately before it
deteriorates ftlrther. Presently, Emily Is len 10 her own devices She is mrely outdoors She does
not have social inleraction with her peers. She is nOt involved in scouting or other extra-curricular
activities.
18. Father belleveslhat he can provide Enlily with a "tresh start" where the sligll1a afher
4
actlnM out behaviors will notli.lllow her (such liS the 8leuling IInd int1amnllullry Cllmmeflls) FlIther
believes that his home will be more nurturing of Emily's prescnt soclulund develllpmentlll needs,
19, Emily desires to rcside with Flllher,
20, Father will continue to enclluragoand support Mother's relutionshlp with Emily and
the other children,
21, The bestlntcrC81llnd pernll1ncnt wcllilre of Emily and thc other child, en will bc scrved
by granting the relief requested.
w tlEREFORf:, Fathcr requests the Court to granl FutileI' primllry physical custody of Emily
and want Mother rights ofpllrtial physical, Fathcr rcquests thatthc present shurcd custody schcdule
