| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | blindness to the allocation of parental responsibilities, | ||||||
2 | parenting time, foster care, guardianship, or adoption should | ||||||
3 | be denied or limited in any manner, the court shall make | ||||||
4 | specific written findings stating the basis for such a | ||||||
5 | determination and why supportive parenting services cannot | ||||||
6 | prevent the denial or limitation."; and
