In the documents, a judge writes, “the testimony of Father, Mother and Dr. Lee indicated that Mother appears to overreact to many medical issues involving [the child].” As an example, the court wrote that Sharon believed that her son suffered from a spinal illness when there was “no evidence to support this allegation.” The court also noted that Sharon wanted to get Botox injections for her son to deal with foot odor, while his father suggested wearing socks with shoes and using foot deodorant.
The court also wrote that “unless Mother’s schedule is accommodated and her demands are met, she has simply refused to participate in the counseling processes designed entirely to help her son. Such conduct on the part of any parent, especially a parent of a child with special needs, is unacceptable and does not serve the child’s best interest.”
The court noted in describing Bronstein, “The evidence is clear that Father is not only prepared to be responsible for [his son’s] day-to-day care but has been over the last three years … In addition, Father spends time with [his son]. He is available to [his son] in the morning and evening.”
“In contrast,” the court wrote about Stone, “Mother delegates many of her parenting responsibilities to third parties and while this Court in no way faults Mother for having to travel for her career, she is simply unavailable for [her son] on a consistent basis.”
