Great Story This was in the Bryan Eagle this morning
Entire Family Beats Child
College Station, Texas - A seven-year-old boy was at the center of a
Brazos County courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court
ruling over who should have custody of him. The boy has a history of
being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to
his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulations requiring
that family unity be maintained to the degree possible.
The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him
more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When
the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy
cried out that they also beat him.
After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning
that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the
judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who
should have custody of him. After two recesses to check legal
references
and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary
custody to the Texas Aggies, whom the boy firmly believes are not
currently capable of beating anyone.
