Setting The Scene For Success In Nj Divorce
The traditional adversarial system continues to draw criticism when aggressively applied to family law cases.

My dad was a binge drinker and he would go off on a bender every six months or so. He would be gone from one to three days. I always asked my mom where dad slept when he was gone and she would say in the car. I wasn't sure who drove who crazier, mom or dad.

So I wasn't sure if mom drove dad to drink or dad's drinking drove my mom to make those comments. I didn't really drink as a teenager, but...
