He can. In fact he makes a point of reading and doing sudoku to try keep his mind active. If nothing it may give him focus and hope. If you have any suggested material please do pass it on thank you.Can your friend still comfortably read?
If so, I can recommend some reading that might help him understand what has happened to him and his 2 children. Maybe material that might be too heavy and too late.. The family law system is just outdated, designed to deal with traditional deserted housewife in the 70s with most of its modus operandi derived out of the women’s lib movement. Some men are decent at least, many are great Dads and almost all of those get crushed
He understands fully. That is largely the crux of his mental trauma. He can understand what, but not why in terms of he is a man who lived in a very logical way. Professionally he managed projects based on fact and outcome. He lectured people on how to use information to make decisions.
Now he is left with what he feels (as do I and others) is irrefutable evidence of what actually went on/is going on, however it is being ignored.
He was diagnosed with PTSD "secondary to the ongoing difficulties of his ex wife and the energy in dealing with ongoing slings and arrows being directed by a very vitriolic legal team".
That was from an eminent clinical psychologist, yet the judge said "these people are only buddies to who pays them".
One would hope the new in camera rule would assist in stopping this type of sweeping nonsense and the grandstanding from (some) solicitors and judges with no concrete info to back it.
