Chapter 11 - Guardian Ad Litem Service

It is more the system than the guardian ad litemservice itself, in the sense that the system facilitates that the guardian ad litemis paid more if there are more reviews or if a hearing takes place and continues on. If we look at it from the child's perspective, I have a major issue with it. It is good that the witness is accepting that today. We have to be the voice of the child and that is very important.
