**UPDATE: FISCHER HAS BEEN RETURNED TO ME BUT I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP THE PETITION GOING BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY OTHER CHILDREN AND FAMILIES FACING THIS SAME ISSUE. PLEASE CONTINUE TO SIGN AND SHARE**
Friends, neighbors, and concerned citizens,
Many people are suffering during this pandemic: Front line heath care workers, the elderly, people with underlying health issues, just to name a few. However, there is an other group of vulnerable citizens that we have failed to look out for, the children.
Even though it would appear that most children are immune to the virus, there is an other issue they are facing. Far too many custody agreements have been broken since the start of this lock down, meaning children with more than one home have been prohibited from seeing both of their parents and siblings. Sometimes this is done with good intentions, many times it's because one parent or guardian feels they are above the law.
Local law enforcement and Children’s Aid Society are often unable to do anything about parents in violation of their legal binding custody agreements. I have written about this issue to my MPP and as of this writing, have not received a response.
I'm not looking for any additional funding. All I ask is that from now to the end of this pandemic ALL custody agreements are police enforceable unless agreed to otherwise by both parents or guardians. This would ensure that children get to spend time with both parents/guardians and that if one party breaks the agreement, the law will hold them accountable.
Please sign my petition if you agree
Thank you

Fischer is home but the fight for other families continues. Too many kids are still being kept from their parents.

Fischer is home. The momentum here proves this fight is far from finished for other families.

No parent should be kept from their child and no child should be kept from their parent provided legal access had previously been granted. Uphold current custody agreements and mandate amendments as needed to enforce them. Sorry you’re in this difficult spot. Love and best wishes for you to get through this.
Fischer's wellbeing is at stake here -- she should be with her Mama -- and the law/agreement stipulates as much! Action!!!!!!
As a parent myself, I understand the need and love a child should receive from both able parents when two able parents are available to give their Love. Both parents in this case are able and the divorce agreement in no way should be strayed from unless just cause has proven so.
Children need both parents, even more so now, also parents have the right and responsibility to see their children.
I know it's not easy, but children shared with families shared with children of other families puts everyone at the same risk as school
Every mom’s doing everything for their children to make them better

Fischer has been reunited with her Mom. And she should see BOTH parents on the standing custody agreement. Thank you for your signature and for sharing.
