First, it seems that DCF was quite incorrect when it argued that allowing the natural, non-offending father custody of his daughter would damage the child:
The 5-year-old with hazel eyes and a bouncy ponytail swung across the monkey bars as her Cuban father Rafael Izquierdo proudly watched nearby, ready to catch her.
"Look at me go Papi!" she squealed, just before she dropped into his waiting arms.
In the six months since Izquierdo regained custody of his young daughter after a high-profile court case, the two have developed a deep bond. It is one they never shared when the girl lived in Cuba with her mother, let alone after she first came to the U.S. and sparked an intense, international custody battle.
Second, I recommend the article to you if only to read this:
"With all those psychologists, and therapists, it was confusing. She was suffering. In the long run, they were going to damage her. I had to dance to their dance," Izquierdo said of the agreement.
....from the mouths of communist pig farmers....
