Florida Supreme Court Limits Parental Speech in Custody Case
The Florida Supreme Court upheld a lower court order requiring a Dade County mother to stop brainwashing her children against their father. The ruling allows restricting abusive or acrimonious remarks to protect minors, balancing free speech against the state's interest in the children's well being. The case traces to Laurel Schutz and Richard D. Schutz, divorced since 1978, with disputes over custody, visitation, and efforts to foster father-child relationships.
