Groundbreaking' new law will change definition of family

This ought to piss off the family rights and parental rights groups, (snicker).

By the way, the terms "family" and "parent" have never been statutorily defined in the United States.

 

30-year-old act not relevant to today's reality, AG says


The B.C. government plans revolutionary changes to family law to better reflect the realities of modern society.
Its proposals to update the 30-year-old Family Relations Act include revising the legal definition of a parent, changing property-division rules, making children's interests the "only" consideration in parenting disputes, and even replacing the terms "custody" and "access" with "guardianship" and "parenting time."
