Produktbeschreibung
Pride and Legal Prejudice is the second part of a trilogy covering the author's efforts to parent and advocate for his adopted child with severe attachment issues in both Seattle and Los Angeles. Readers will be able to see here how his tenacious efforts to help his daughter would end up being denied or invalidated by the child-welfare legal complex in Los Angeles. How the author fought with pride against the legal prejudice that he and his daughter endured during their traumatic three-year dependency court case in Los Angeles will become the focus of this second volume. The author will conclude that reunifying successfully with one's child in any dependency case needs to involve more than just being willing to complete an assigned case plan or keeping up with visitation demands. Beyond these worthy goals, Cambridge will be exploring the many ways in which a strong and motivated legal team that is just as intent on the goal of reunification as the parent, is of paramount importance. Cambridge believes that while he was able to retain his parental rights at the end of their long case, he and his daughter could have forestalled much lasting trauma if their assigned social workers and therapists had been able to "see better" and if the presiding commissioner of his case had been less prejudiced. The author was left still trying to reach his troubled daughter when their dependency case ended. Readers will be able to judge the extent to which he succeeded or made progress in his final volume.

Autorenporträt
Originally from England, Simon Cambridge has a bachelor's degree from the University of London in Modern History and Politics, and a master's degree from Loughborough University in Library and Information Science. The author currently lives in the Seattle area with his small Shetland sheepdog and looks forward to helping his daughter, Cordelia, heal from her long and traumatic childhood and adolescence. When he is not reading, writing, listening to Bob Dylan's music, and photographing beautiful places in Seattle and Washington State, readers should be able to find Mr. Cambridge at Seattle Shakespeare Company performances held throughout the year, or at Seattle Sounders FC soccer games proudly and passionately wearing the colors of the "Eternal Blue, Forever Green."
