NY dad deemed unfit for not taking son to McDonald's | Fox News
Bottom line to this one is parents are using their kid as a weapon against each other.
A Manhattan dad is not lovin McDonalds right now.
Attorney David Schorr slapped a court-appointed shrink with a defamation lawsuit for telling the judge deciding a custody battle with his estranged wife that he was an unfit parent for refusing to take his son to the fast food joint for dinner.
Youd think it was sexual molestation, Schorr, 43, told The Post Thursday. I am just floored by it.
Schorr says in his Manhattan Supreme Court suit that E. 97th Street psychiatrist Marilyn Schiller filed a report saying he was wholly incapable of taking care of his son and should be denied his weekend visitation over the greasy burger ban....
But the boy threw a temper tantrum and demanded McDonalds. So he gave his son an ultimatum: dinner anywhere other than McDonalds or no dinner.
I wish I had taken him to McDonalds, but you get nervous about rewarding bad behavior. I was concerned. I think it was a 1950s equivalent of sending your child to bed without dinner. Thats maybe the worst thing you can say about it, he said.
