In no case should and cannot, and I vigorously oppose, talking about some "mother's lobby" and "father's lobby" when we talk about the idea of shared parenting. This is a modern social necessity, this is modern social justice. There is a cliché that says that mothers were against shared parenting, and fathers were for it. The idea is for both parents to have an equal and significant presence in the child's life, regardless of whether they are together or separated, because in modern life more than half of children are born to separated parents. On an annual basis, half of marriages break up. He stated this to Lili Marinkova in the "FACT" studio and the "Conversation" program Adv. Plamen Borisov.
„I am trying to include cohabitation between people without marriage. Parents come to me for consultation even before the child is born, and the disputes have already begun. So the protest is related to what was discussed in the National Assembly. My like-minded people and I have been fighting for 15 years and now for the first time we are reaching a legislative text“, added the lawyer.
„Until now, this reform was going away with the next parliament that was ending, and the topic was ending because it was not of media interest. A year ago, three bills were introduced by deputies and this was the reason why the opponents of shared parenting, seeing that a legislative initiative was already underway that could end with a law, showed themselves and saw who was who. One bill is from GERB, another from ITN, and a third - from – – from “Vazrazhdane“. No "You could say that this bill is political – it has supporters and opponents in all parties," the guest concluded.
