Divorce is never an easy process for any couple. While some couples have more difficulties and roadblocks than others, there is bound to be a certain degree of resentment, anger, and frustration in any divorce. And when there are custody issues involved, things can get even more complicated and emotional.

In our previous post, we began looking at the story of a man who is appealing a family court judge's order that he close down a personal blog where he vented his feelings about his failed marriage, contentious divorce and ongoing custody battle between he and his ex-wife. We noted in our last blog that the man was appealing the ruling on the grounds that it violated his free speech rights and that he was not given the opportunity to make his case in support of the blog.

According to the man's ex-wife, the order was "the right thing" for the judge to do, particularly since it was harming the couple's two sons and her relationship with them.

Gail Saltz, a psychiatrist who has weighed in on the subject, has said that while the man may end up winning his appeal and be able to continue his blog, the couple's children will be negatively affected as a result. In her view, the best scenario in a divorce is when both parents can be there for the children, and when both parents' good name remains as intact as possible.

A court date has not yet been set for the man's appeal.
