Last time on the podcast she became a viral sensation because of some of her remarks. Erin Schaden, a family law attorney, divorce coach, and mediator, is back on the podcast and she's not holding back.  Great interview where we discuss various topics related to divorce and custody battles. Erin shares her insights on how unfortunately custody can be used as a weapon to hurt the other parent, the impact of false allegations in obtaining protective orders, and the manipulation of child support. We also discuss the importance of focusing on the best interests of the children and the need for maturity and accountability in divorce proceedings. We also explore the various aspects of domestic violence, gender bias in restraining orders, the impact of domestic violence on men, the perception of men and women in divorce, the role of emotional immaturity in divorce, the flaws in the divorce process, the potential negative impact of AI in divorce, and the importance of taking responsibility and creating safe spaces. 

• Custody battles can often become a tool for one parent to hurt the other, leading to negative consequences for the children involved.
• False allegations in obtaining protective orders can be used as a strategy to gain an advantage in custody disputes.
• Child support guidelines may not always be fair, and lower-income individuals can struggle to meet their financial obligations while maintaining a relationship with their children.
• It is crucial for parents to prioritize the well-being of their children and avoid using them as pawns in divorce proceedings. Domestic violence is a serious issue that affects both men and women.
• Gender bias can exist in the process of obtaining restraining orders.
• Men can also be victims of domestic violence and face challenges in seeking help.
• Emotional immaturity can contribute to the breakdown of relationships.
• The divorce process can be flawed and lead to unnecessary conflict.
• Advancements in AI may not necessarily improve the divorce process.
• Creating safe spaces and promoting understanding can help improve relationships and prevent divorce.
