When you take a job as a guardian ad litem, you never really get to leave the office.
Often weekends are when the conflict is the highest and the emails from parties in divorce cases will come rapidly. They are long and accusatory. Everyone is a victim of their spouse’s behavior. You are asked to intercede. You are asked to set the other parent straight immediately. You are asked to perform miracles so long as those miracles are exactly what each parent wants but not what the other parent wants. When you can’t satisfy both parents at all times; you are the root of this family’s demise. You are the one getting wealthy off of their life savings. The judicial system is the broken piece. It’s not them.
