Best interest of the Child
Parental Care
Doing the best that you can with the resources you have, we understand the most important job parents have been to take care of their children. We are also aware that there is no perfect parent, and we are not here to judge you but here to assist you as parents ourselves to protect your child right to be cared for by you when that right is being threatened. Where the threats come from can be within your own wider family structure so contact Grohovaz Attorneys to guide you through family conflicts with the objective of preserving the family structure.
Family Care
Although the wider family structure has a very important role in respect of raising your children, as they say it takes a village to raise a child, however, there are only two people in that child’s life who have an automatic right to make decisions around your children and that is YOU. It is important to remember that your child has a right to a relationship to the wider family members and to foster those relationships, it is important for your child and his/her development.
Alternative Care
Where a child is found to be in need of care and protection, it is important to remember that although your child is placed into alternative care such as temp safe care facilities, foster care, and/or *special needs facility* or with other family members and registered youth care centres, it is important to remember that circumstances can change and when they have done so to the best interests of your child, you can contact Grohovaz Attorneys to assist you through or to the reunification of your child.
Child Participation
The voice of the child has been bandied about significantly over the last few years without any real ear to actually hear what your child is saying even though as parents we do not have to comply with what our children say and or demand especially when it is clear that it is not in the best interest of our children, it is critical that when the child is given an opportunity to express him or herself their opinions and or thoughts in the CORRECT environment, you can learn so much about the perspective of which a perspective of which your child sees you and or your environment to the extent that this could very well give you the information to be a parent. When your child is speaking and the relevant people with authority are not listening contact Grohovaz Attorneys to assist you to the best interest of your child.
Access to Courts
ANYONE who has an interest in protecting a child and the rights of that child may approach a court for relief and may not be denied for assistance in matters related to any children’s matter and the access to a court contact Grohovaz Attorneys.
