💖 Posting a clearer version from a different angle — this video still makes me cry happy tears. After 25 years apart, Juan finally hugged both of his parents. As a family and immigration attorney, nothing fills my heart more than moments like this. 🇺🇸✨

💖 After 25 years apart, Juan finally hugged both of his parents again. ❤️

As a family and immigration attorney, moments like this remind me why I do this work. Every case is more than paperwork — it’s about reuniting families, restoring hope, and honoring love that distance could never break. 🌎✨

Now a lawful permanent resident, Juan can finally live the life he dreamed of — surrounded by his loved ones.

So proud of you, Juan, and of my beautiful cousin Doris Sosa who stood by him every step of the way. 💕

💬 You Read the Children’s Bill of Rights—Now What?

On our last post we talked about the Children’s Bill of Rights during divorce.
Those principles mean the most when we live them every day.

Practical ways to put kids first:
✨ Keep court dates and legal issues private—children shouldn’t carry adult worries.
✨ Work together on a parenting schedule that feels predictable and safe.
✨ Celebrate milestones (birthdays, graduations) together when possible and safe to do so children feel supported by both parents.
✨ Check in with your child’s feelings and let them guide you on what they need to feel secure.

📖 Haven’t seen the full list yet? You can still read it here:

Let’s turn rights into daily actions so every child of divorce knows they are loved, heard, and protected.

For Children Whose Parents Are Separated

09/16/2025

💔 Divorce Happens. Protecting Children Comes First. 💖

When parents separate, conflict can overshadow what matters most—the best interests of the child.
New York law is clear: every custody and visitation decision must center on the child’s well-being.

Children’s Bill of Rights
✅ The right to love both parents without guilt or pressure
✅ The right to be kept out of adult arguments and legal battles
✅ The right to a stable routine and meaningful time with each parent
✅ The right to be heard and have feelings respected
✅ The right to safety, support, and an uninterrupted childhood

📖 Learn more and share these rights directly from the New York Courts:

Let’s make sure every custody conversation, every court filing, and every parenting plan keeps children first.
