| Abstract: | Like an iceberg, there are a multitude of family dynamics below the surface that GALs and other professionals may never know about a family when making decisions. Therefore, the question remains: When is it appropriate for an adolescent to speak to the court directly? Clarity from the legislature and the courts is desperately needed. (from Conclusion) |
