Sorry will be ranty. I might be in minority but I really liked the ruling here (as unlikely as it would be to limit maternal custody as there is sometimes maternal bias in custody hearings (at least early 2010s, i have not followed current studies as much). I went back what was Violet's proposal to Pete last episode. "So I figured we could transition Lucas very slowly. Start out with daily visits, then maybe an overnight, maybe one week with you, one week with me..." I think from just that I can see Pete freaking out. She said 'slowly' but that's not really what the rest of her words imply. She just came back, held the kid like first time in a year and already has a full plan to uproot the kids current situation because she is now 'ready'. Even that 'weekend with you/weekend with me' seem like just a step on her list and she just got cut off by him before actually requesting full or almost full custody. And this is after almost a year of Pete being a sole parent and her being non contact. Doing supervised visits is a good first step in light of everything that happened. Then as the judge said new hearing can be made (and a move to limited custody and maybe a full 50/50 split when she proves she can take full responsibility ) I also think Amelia's take was misguided. She said that we do not take kids from other victims of PTSD (war vets, victims of abuse, people who have been in accidents) but this jumps over the significant fact that Violet's PTSD is directly tied to a birth of her child. The child's presence might re-trigger her PTSD this is why slow (very slow) steps are needed. I think if Violet told Pete she wants to be more in Lucas life and move from there we would not have this fight, but because she came in with this expectations that now she has a plan and of course he will follow it is what turned it ugly.

Just because Violet laid out her whole plan into shared custody, doesn’t mean she didn’t mean to slowly follow all those steps. Part of her therapy was very likely making the whole plan. Having each step carefully thought about and planned. The daily visits could have gone on for 3 months before an overnight, which could have then also gone on for months before any other steps. Planning that far ahead is great idea, not just for kids but also for trauma victims. Gives them a sense of control back, and routine is wonderful thing, and having it all planned out early means that everyone is on the same page. Pete over reacted in the extreme.

Anytime we're in a court room and it's not a lawyer show, I'm stressed 😥
