Did I imagine that in civil cases of extraordinary circumstances...like ratifying a contract that banishes kids from either a mother or father for life... that a necessity is for children to have their own interests represented by counsel?
You certainly imagined all that pseudo-legal gibberish about the Infancy Doctrine applying to the marriage of parents of the child. You made up any reference to 'implied parties', 'implicity parties', 'implied beneficiaries', as well as any mention of 'implied' anything, or any mention of 'beneficiaries' in the 'Infancy Doctrine Inquiries'.
In your entire document, there's not a single mention of the infancy doctrine restricting or any anyway effecting the marriage of parents of a child.
If marriage is a contract, and Obergefell's third rationale for favoring is children are "part of the whole of marriage", then children are "part of the whole of the marriage contract." And, therefore, the Infancy Doctrine need not mention marriage specifically if it is a contract. The ID is about ALL contracts involving children
And..
I notice you made no comment about children needing mandatory representation in the civil suit Obergefell. Revising a contract they're involved in in civil trial which the outcome was to eliminate their historical benefit for life using that contract, most certainly means Obergefell violated the ID by not having any counsel present for children's unique interests in the marriage contract's radical proposed revision.
I notice you STILL have not commented on the passage in the Infancy Doctrine that mandates counsel for children at civil hearings with extraordinary consequences for their interests...like new banishment of either a father or mother for life.The term 'part of the whole of marriage' is never uttered in Obergefell. That's your imagination. Nor have the courts ever recognized that a child is a party to the marriage of their parents.,,,,,,Ever.,,,,You've imagined both. And your imagination is not a legal standard. Meanwhile, Obergefell found that banning same sex marriage did humiliate and hurt children:
The entire third rationale for Obergefell was the discussion of how children and child-raising was an inseparable part of the whole of their consideration of what marriage itself is. They devoted an entire area of emphasis to it. There's no wiggling out of it Skylar.
Indeed it is YOU who are stuck...
