What Tsimhoni Dad Can Do to Reunite with His Kids

Having been in the Tsimhoni childrens' shoes, I present to you a list of things to do and not to do when you are a parent whom the children despise and don't want to talk to:

Disclaimer: Not all children SHOULD reunite with the other parent.  If that parent is toxic, violent, etc., they need to have years of therapy themselves and the children will probably not be ready to even speak with them until they are adults.

What to do to reunite with your children:

  1. Show them unconditional love.  This means ALL of your actions come from and are done with LOVE, and ONLY love.  This means if you make ANY decision that affects them in an unloving way, you have failed.
  2. Write them an apology.  Detail your mistakes, sincerely apologize (absolutely no "I'm sorry you feel that way" under any circumstances!), and tell them how much you love and miss them.
  3. Apologize to their other parent in front of them.  Explain each thing you did that hurt them and apologize.  Do this until the other parent kindly forgives you, also in front of the children. 
  4. Hug the other parent in front of them.  Tell them you are proud of the hard work and love they put into raising your children.  Tell them how glad you are to have them as a friend.  MEAN IT.  This person is not your enemy and you are not theirs.  By just getting divorced, we break our children's hearts.  Can you imagine only getting visitation with your spouse? Divorce is a terrible thing.  You must both acknowledge that and make it as easy for the kids as possible.
  5. If you have abused the children or abused the other parent and they have witnessed it, VERBALLY or PHYSICALLY, explain to the children what you did, how it was wrong, and what you have done to prevent it from ever happening again.  You can say that you are not perfect and will make mistakes, but you must promise AND MEAN IT that you will NEVER abuse them again.  Tell them you will do whatever they desire so they feel safe when they visit you, whether this means all visits are always supervised, always in public, always with the other parent, etc.
  6. Read The Conscious Parent by Dr. Shefali to learn how to connect with and learn from your children.  This book will also help you recognize when their actions trigger you.  I'm not affiliated with Dr. Shefali at all but I cannot speak highly enough of how much you NEED this book.  Every parent needs it.  Anyone that refuses to read this book but does not have a relationship with their child, DOESN'T WANT a relationship with their child.
  7. After #6, CONNECT WITH YOUR CHILD. 
  8. Allow your children to be who they are.  Do not attempt to mold, persuade, teach, guide, lead, rule over them.  You absolutely have given up any rights to the already-awful authoritarian parenting style.  You can protect their health and well-being.  You can have basic rules aimed at protecting those that you can enforce with explanation (see #6), but you CANNOT boss them around.  You can't tell them what they must believe (think religion, politics, etc.) and you can not try to change them.  They are a unique soul already, learn from them.  You are not in the position to assist with behavior shaping any time soon.  You and the other parent must always be in agreement about the behaviors you are going to model.
  9. Always, always, always be friendly to their other parent.  Always.  Always act with love (see #1).  Always be of service.  Always bend your schedule to make sure it doesn't trample on theirs.
  10. Finally, ask them what else you can do for them.  Ask them what they want.  Always be in tune to their needs, aware of their interests, and actively involved in their life.   There shouldn't be anything "in it for you", other than supporting your beautiful kids.  Text/email them to keep communication going when you can't be together.  Tell them about fun things you are doing with your life, too.  You should still be growing and interesting.

What NOT to do to reunite with your children:

  1. Take them to court.  Especially one that will verbally abuse them, jail them, belittle them, mock their other parent, insult their other parent, insult their intelligence, force them to visit, force them to do anything, take away their basic human rights, etc. 
  2. Do not do anything to harm their other parent - financially, physically, emotionally, etc.  Look, you used to love this person more than anyone else in the world.  You were together when these precious babies were born.   No matter what happened between you, you must maintain a friendship and act with love towards the other parent.  Do not question their sanity, their mental health, their motives, etc.  Do not financially ruin them.  Do not be vindictive.  Do not allow anyone to speak poorly about them.
  3. Give up on your kids.   If your kids won't have an open dialog with you, it's because you've not done one or more of the first 10 items in the to-do list.  They won't talk to you until they trust you and until you've shown love and kindness to the parent they will be loyal to until they die.
  4. Do not send your kids cards or gifts when you still don't have a relationship with them.  It will be seen as completely insincere.  If you are aware they are in need of something, send that to their parent. 
  5. Do not tell your kids they are wrong, they don't understand, they're too young, it's too bad, they need to deal with it, shit happens, etc. 
  6. Do not force your new family on your children.  Do not allow your new spouse to tell your children what to do.  Do not try to substitute your time and attention with that of your new spouse's.  The kids aren't there for him/her, they need you.
  7. Do not critique their school work/success.  See #6 of the to-dos.  Your child should enjoy learning and should NEVER be pushed to succeed.  They aren't your mini-me.  Don't critique their other parent's involvement or lack thereof in their school work or other interests.  Support them and their passions and encourage them to have fun and enjoy life and learning. 
  8. Take children to counseling.  Well-qualified therapists are great for adults, but they can't fix your relationship with your child.  YOU must fix that.  If your child needs help to sit through their feelings from trauma they've been put through, it better be an extremely loving and kind therapist that is going to give them tools for sitting with their emotions and will NOT even attempt to force their relationships.  Again: ONLY YOU can fix the relationship.  
  9. Fight with their other parent about money, for anything.  If one of you is facing a hardship in relation to providing for the kids, work it out.  These kids are innocent.  They still deserve every opportunity they had when you were together.  Don't make them suffer because you chose the wrong spouse.  If there is a valid need, both parents need to be honest and work it out.  Don't quit your job to spite your ex and as a result be ordered to pay less child support.  I can't think of a lower thing someone could do.  You should want your ex-spouse to succeed, they are the parent of your children.
  10. Finally, don't be so egotistical that you think you've done nothing wrong.  Don't blame the other parent.  Don't be a coward that runs to court.  Figure out what you've done wrong in your children's eyes, sincerely apologize for it whether you think you've done something wrong or not, and figure out how to make sure it never happens again.  Again, always act with love.  That is the only way you will EVER make progress.

Who is Maya Tsimhoni?

As one of the only ocular pediatric specialists in the United States, board-certified ophthalmologist Dr. Maya Eibschitz-Tsimhoni boasts expertise in a field few doctors have studied: primary congenital glaucoma. The disease affects one in 10,000 children, which is much less common than other afflictions in newborns.

Primary congenital glaucoma affects the eye’s ability to drain liquids found within it. The improper development of the eye’s drainage channels is the main culprit, as the buildup of fluid causes unwanted pressure. This pressure can lead to vision loss or even blindness if not treated at an early stage. Dr. Maya Eibschitz-Tsimhoni has worked her entire career to prevent her patients from experiencing these effects.

Dr. Maya Eibschitz-Tsimhoni trained at the W. K. Kellogg Eye Center, University of Michigan Health System. During her residency and fellowships at the University of Michigan, Dr. Maya Eibschitz-Tsimhoni published numerous articles about her research into the glaucoma and other conditions. Dr. Eibschitz-Tsimhoni served as Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology for the University, a position she held from 2004.  

Aside from her publications, Dr. Maya Eibschitz-Tsimhoni has given guests lectures and attended conferences where she shared her expertise on primary congenital glaucoma, including annual meetings of the American Academy of Ophthalmology. Dr. Eibschitz-Tsimhoni maintains research interests in the diagnosis and treatment of strabismus and amblyopia, intraocular lens power calculation in children, and ocular manifestations of inherited diseases in children. She is a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus, and the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology.


Maya is currently unemployed.  Scorned ex-husband Omer Tsimhoni hired a public relations firm employed by his new wife, Sharon Tzur, to spread the false allegations that she "abducted her children" from Israel. 

Of all of the people in the courtroom in Oakland County, Dr. Maya Eibschitz-Tsimhoni is the only one with professional childhood development training.  She has spent her entire professional life ensuring kids can see.  

It's up to you to make sure her kids are seen and heard.

The Tsimhoni case is following the pattern of thousands of other protective mother cases so far:
Mother tries to protect her children; evidence of abuse by the father is disregarded and covered up; children and mother are isolated from each other as a means of breaking and silencing them; father files for full custody on the basis that mom is interfering with his relationship with his children (alienation); children are sent to biased mental health professionals who convince them to recant or stay quiet about the abuse with threats they won't see their mother if they don't.
Hopefully the courtwatch, protest and media coverage will change the pattern and the father will not get full custody - the usual outcome.

FACTS:

The history of the events as recounted in the news media needs to be corrected and made factual:

1. Maya did not move here in 2009, She moved here in 1996. the children were born and raised in the U.S.
2. All three children were born and raised here and are U.S. Citizens
3. After she filed for divorce, Omer asked Maya in 2008 to come to Israel for a visit and promised her she could leave with the kids at anytime. A written contract was not drawn up as Omer stated it would have no validity in Israel. Omer planned the trip which resulted in Omer falsifying her application to the Israeli Government that she was a “returning citizen” and “signing an extended lease” for an apartment in Israel (forged documents presented to court in Israel Ex parte and the Federal court in Detroit). Omer had all the families possessions put in a container and sent to Israel so “the kids would have something to do while we were there”.
4. When Maya returned to the U.S., Omer filed kidnapping charges against her in Israel and the U.S. A federal trial ensued and Maya was exonerated as Omer’s mischaracterizations and falsehoods were made transparent.
5. Maya again filed for divorce (first time was in 2008). In divorce court, Omer again alleged that she was a kidnapper.
6. Despite repeated accusations that Maya was denying Omer access to the children, Maya fought to create a positive attitude about Omer to the children.
7. The children have witnessed events that impair their trust with Omer: Omer locking them in the car, threatening to murder them and throwing Maya up against the car in front of them (CPS report). The recent episode where Roee sustained a chest contusion (see Beaumont medical reports). 
8. Maya continues to promote Omer’s full participation with the kids but trust must be built through sincere effort; reaching out to them, recognizing their concerns, apologizing for any misunderstandings.
9. Omer has lived in Israel since Nov of 2008 and willingly has limited his contact with his children. 
10. Previously, Maya was supposed to go visit her dying Father in April, but they changed it so Omer could have visitation.  In June, she told the court she was going and they said no on Israel but yes to France and Italy.  They said she had the whole summer with the children as Omer wasn't scheduled to be back.  The second she landed with the kids, she received an email from her lawyer that Omer filed a motion for an emergency hearing because he was in the U.S. and wanted to see the kids and she needed to be home within a day to make it to that motion.  They had to go to court straight from the airport. Her lawyer made them watch the video of the hearing because Judge Lisa Gorcyca couldn't remember saying that they allowed her to go.  They joked and asked if anyone wanted popcorn while they watched themselves.
11. Omer had the ability to take the kids out of the juvenile detention but preferred to leave them in jail and left to Israel June 25th, the day after the children were sentenced. 
12. The only reason the children were transferred from the jail to the camp was because of the media intervention. But the children are still isolated from Maya and from their entire pre-June 24th life.

On June 24th, Maya Tsimnhoni's three kids (Liam [13], Roee [10], Natalie [9]) were sent to Juvenile Detention for refusing to have lunch with their father, Omer Tsimhoni, from whom they are estranged due to a long history of abuse and absence. After public outcry, Judge Lisa Gorcyca  along with GAL William (Bill) Lansat sent the kids to sleepover camp where they are currently being housed away from the general camp population and unable to have any form of communication with their mother. Please donate so we can bring Liam, Roee and Natalie back home to their mother.

**Liam celebrated his 14th birthday (July 6th) in Juvenile Detention 

**Dad was the only person who could release the children from Juvy but instead, left for Israel on June 25th, the day after they were locked up

**Dad had free reigns of visitation but did not exercise them, never visiting them while they were in Juvy

Judge Lisa Gorcyca Confuses Children with Criminals

Judge Lisa Ortlieb Gorcyca is quite the superstar.  Before being elected to Oakland County Family Court, she was an assistant to prosecutor David Gorcyca, whom you may know for his role in sending Dr. Jack Kevorkian to prison for assisted suicides.  Gorcyca's marriage later ended and he married Lisa.

Well, it turns out Lisa is lusted over in not one but TWO books:

Internal Combustion by Joyce Maynard
A Deadly Affair by Tom Henderson

In Internal Combustion, the author quotes Lisa as saying;


  • "I'm an open book.  I'm just a girl who loves to put criminals behind bars."  And apparently children, too!
  • "Back in law school (where she knew right off the bat that civil law "bored me to tears"), she had recognized that she could make a lot more money as a criminal defense attorney than she would working for the state."  Or just being elected as judge and pretending children are criminals!
  • "I'm all about the truth."  All about ignoring the truth!



But Lisa didn't stop there - you can also find her on TV!  Well, on YouTube, in "Stalked Someone's Watching: Too Close to Home" S01E03.  

She talks about her role in the Harvette Williams stalking case.  I haven't read the court documents but it sounds like Lisa didn't do much for the five years Harvette was stalked - he pleaded no contest and entered a deal after Harvette took it into her own hands and recorded one of his phone calls.  Harvette later founded the Michigan Coalition of Anti-Stalking, and had a GPS tracking law signed by then-Governor Granholm, by the way, so good for her.

The way Judge Lisa Gorcyca spoke to the Tsimhoni kids on June 24th, and to their mother prior, is appalling.   These kids have done nothing to deserve being treated like criminals and verbally and emotionally abused.  All they have done is politely insist that they want nothing to do with their father, who tried to accuse their mother of kidnapping them when she returned home from a visit to Israel with them after already filing for divorce, who started a new family and has made little time for them, who has verbally and physically abused their mother, who forced them to come home the day after they landed in France for a visit with their dying Grandfather because he wanted to make up parenting time he had missed, despite the court allowing the mother to go (they forgot, and had to watch the video to prove they did indeed tell her she could go) and whose only interests lie in winning a case, not loving his first three children.

Lisa Gorcyca needs to go back to criminal law.  It's a crime that she's on a domestic violence board yet is ignoring the domestic violence in her own courtroom.   It's a crime that she thinks punishing kids will somehow force them to feel emotions they don't feel or to ignore their own history with their abuser.  It's a crime that she has ignored these victims of domestic violence and blindly supported and shown bias towards their abuser.

Please sign the petitions to remove Lisa Gorcyca from the Oakland County courtroom immediately:

You don't have to be pro-mom OR pro-dad in the Tsimhoni case, just be pro-children.

  If you are on the fence about supporting the mother in the Tsimhoni case, I don't blame you.  We often hear about or know families that have gone through court only to have mom immediately awarded custody when she may not always be the best parent.


  Sadly, in family court, there is no burden of proof when flinging all sorts of accusations at each party.  It's parent against parent, no resources of the state behind either.  Or, there shouldn't be...  Omer Tsimhoni can accuse Maya Tsimhoni of parental alienation (a made-up syndrome to try to pretend one parent isn't just a dick) and Maya can accuse Omer of abuse.

  The fact of the matter is, none of that matters.  Three children, ages 14, 10, and 9, have repeatedly, for FIVE YEARS, stated they want nothing to do with Omer.  Omer has complained that the children don't "run to him".  Records show the kids don't look at him, don't talk to him, refuse to even be in the same room with him.  These are intelligent children with high IQ's that are doing well in school.

  So Judge Lisa Gorcyca has a bias against mom - whether because she's friends with dad's attorney, or because her dad also worked at GM as Omer does, or because her GAL has a relationship with Omer - who knows, and continues to try to demand that these innocent children see their father. 

  They don't want to go - there MUST be something wrong with them!

  But they're just kids, so it MUST be mom's doing!  She must have brainwashed them!

  Wrong. 

  In fact, document after document shows Mom's repeated attempts at encouraging the relationship with her ex-husband:










  It isn't just Maya that is unable to convince the children to see their father.  And she literally agrees to physically drag them to parenting time.  The GAL can't convince them, the supervisor can't convince them, even dad acknowledges when they refuse that an effort was made.

  Even the day Gorcyca threw these children in jail, she acknowledged mom's efforts at begging them to spend time with their father.

  I'm sure both parents love these children and both would like them to love them back, but that's just not how it works.  You drag them to a place where a judge threatens throwing them in prison - even wants them to tour the prison like she is talking to convicts she has to "scare straight".

  Threats and fear do not encourage children to love.

  Dad needs to drop it, mom needs to keep dad informed about the kids, and they both need to learn about conscious parenting.

  So, siding with or funding Dr. Maya Tsimhoni doesn't mean you don't want dad to have parenting time with his kids or you want to make sure only mom can ever see them, but it means you want the madness to stop and the kids voices to be heard - the kids rights to be upheld.  You want the kids to only know love.  You want the court to stop insulting them, labeling them, comparing them to Charles Manson, stop verbally abusing them.  These kids shouldn't be anywhere near Lisa Gorcyca and they are NOT ready to live with their father.  They aren't even ready to look at him.  There is zero proof that this has anything to do with mom and plenty of proof that it's the result of their experiences with their father.  They don't need to live in foster care or be separated from their mother.  They just need to be left alone and left out of the courtroom, so they have time to think hey - perhaps dad is a good guy after all.

Tsimhoni Children Tell Court-Appointed Therapist of Abuse, are Ignored Again

In 2013, the Tsimhoni children were ordered to see the court-appointed therapist, Jennifer Hayes O'Neill , whose report and recommendations Judge Lisa Gorcyca subsequently ordered to be followed.  Mrs. O'Neill has also written a book apparently and ironically all about forcing your children to see the other parent, How to Break Up Without Ruining Your Kids.  Good title; poor content.

Well, she and I definitely are not on the same page about how a child should be raised.  On her blog, Jennifer Hayes writes things like;  "One of my favorite lines in the whole piece is "Repeat after me: Once I’ve fulfilled my child’s basic needs, my only responsibility regarding feelings is to accept and acknowledge them." Or as I tell parents, your new mantra is "Your happiness is not my responsibility”."  

and, "I am constantly working with parents to understand that our job as parents is not to protect our children from distress but rather to help them learn how to manage distress. This prepares them for life in a much deeper, truer, and richer way."

Lovely.  Sorry parents, but if your kids are distressed (extreme anxiety, sorrow, or pain), you're doing something wrong.  So Oakland County Judge Lisa Gorcyca appoints a therapist that ALSO feels kids are only little non-humans, not worthy of our respect, that are here to do what we say and shut up.  Something makes me think Jennifer Hayes O'Neill and Lisa Ortlieb Gorcyca are best buds!

Back to her book, she writes that children who are being subjected to abuse by one parent (no mention of that by judges and guardian ad litems) are not safe in the home.


Which is ironic considering what the Tsimhoni children told her, found in public records from this case dated July 10th, 2013, of the kind of verbal and physical abuse they were holding against their father, Omer Tsimhoni:



"Natalie told Ms. Hayes that Omer said that it will be a bloody scene and that he will get the gun out of his car.  Omer then carried her into the car and pulled Liam into the car and then all 3 children were locked in the car, Natalie also told Ms. Hayes that she saw Omer hit me."

  Maya Tsimhoni rightfully filed a motion to disqualify this court-appointed therapist and now we hear why these children are terrified of and still refuse to speak to their father, Omer Tsimhoni.  That Maya could even bear to continually try to encourage them to speak to him is a testament to the fact that she DOES want her children to have a healthy relationship with their father but knows that the damage has been done and may never be repaired.

Maya Tsimhoni allowed first visit with three children since they were sent to jail June 24th

Maya is allowed to visit the children at camp today, July 16th, 2015.

If her children, who haven't seen her in 23 days, hug or latch onto her, the court has supposedly threatened throwing Maya Tsimhoni into jail for 90 days for contempt.  The father's visit is immediately following Mom's.

I'm sure they will be so excited to see the man that has prevented them from seeing or embracing the woman that gave birth to them and raised them.  I'm sure they will be excited to thank him for sending them to jail.

UPDATE:  Maya is not in jail following the visit to see her kids at the summer camp they were sent to.  It is reported that the children are not doing well.  No further details are available. 

There are hearings Monday 7/20 and Wednesday 7/22.  Supporters are coming from as far as 2,100 miles away.

The Tsimhoni Children: Destruction at the Hands of Their Own Father


You have probably heard about the three kids an Oakland County, Michigan judge, Lisa Gorcyca, sent to jail on June 24th, 2015.  She held them in contempt of court for refusing to have lunch with their father in the courthouse and punished them (though she later claimed it was only to reform them) by sending them IMMEDIATELY to jail - not even allowing them to say goodbye to their mother, Maya Tsimhoni, a prominent pediatric ophthalmologist.  The children are not even a party in the case.  The judge overstepped her bounds and should be disbarred immediately.

  Even more than that, she verbally abused the children - ages 14, 10, and 9.  You can read the transcript here.  It doesn't take a doctor to realize that Judge Lisa Gorcyca is the adult these children should be protected from!

  The children's mother, Maya, has gone to every length to encourage her kids to see their father, whom they have no desire to even look at.  She has even SERVED TIME at the hands of Judge Lisa Gorcyca, who verbally abuses her as well and has said things to her such as, "...your children deserve so much better than you as their mother, and you have me for six more years and two months."

  Even the guardian ad litem, the one third party that should be listening to the children's wishes and be educated in childhood development, is a man named William Lansat, a childless estate lawyer who has a relationship with the children's father, Omer Tsimhoni, and has FAILED to recuse himself from this case.

  When a hearing was held as a result of public pressure last week, July 10th, William Lansat said the kids should be taken out of the jail but NOT go back to their mother!

  The father's attorney, who is friends with Judge Lisa Gorcyca and has also not recused herself, stood up and declared the kids shouldn't be with the only parent they love without any other reason than she is not their father.  Maya's attorney had to remind the court that this wasn't a custody hearing.

  Dad attended the hearing via telephone, as, despite being the only parent that could have visited the children while they were detained, he went right back to Israel where he works for GM.  Mr. Tsimhoni also has a new wife and child.  His new wife is suspected of funding Judge Lisa Gorcyca or the case and she employs Ronn Torrosian, who owns a PR company that is doing everything they can to smear the children's mother.

  ER and doctor visit reports have emerged showing that one of the Tsimhoni children suffered serious contusions to his shoulder, forearm, and side chest at the hands of his father, but our lovely Judge Lisa Gorcyca failed to EVEN DISCUSS the matter despite the doctors having been subpoenaed.  The children have repeatedly stated they fear their father, whom they've also seen push around their mother, yet the Judge and William Lansat laugh in their face.

Following the child's report of being assaulted by his father, Maya did not take the kids to the next two parenting times with Omer Tsimhoni.  Whether she didn't to protect her children, as ANY mother would, or because her children were absolutely unwilling to go, it does not matter.  Judge Lisa Gorcyca REFUSED to see this evidence or speak to these doctors, to even allow Maya Tsimhoni a chance to explain why the kids were not present!  Instead, she served a day in jail.  This is truly appalling behavior by the judge, GAL, and dad's attorneys.  This court FAILED this child and sent him the message that it doesn't matter WHAT his father does to him, they will never believe him.  They have effectively shown the kids that there is zero protection when they are in their father's "care".  How dare they!  I don't even understand how Maya got these kids to ever set foot in the courthouse again.


  The children were visited at the jail and stated they were doing well but they still had zero desire to have anything to do with their father.  Maya Tsimhoni stated after the hearing, where the kids were released to a Jewish Summer Camp for the next two weeks, "I have never done any of the things she is saying about me.  The only thing I always said to the court is that love comes with love. You can't terrorize someone to love. You can't force somebody to love."  Thank God there is one sane adult in the Tsimhoni children's lives.

 The children's mother has lost her job at U of M as a result of the false allegations in this case by the children's father.  She has set up a Go Fund Me to help pay her mounting legal bills.  Please, please help her.  Even if it's only five dollars, we have got to get justice for these kids.  I can assure you this money goes directly to Maya Tsimhoni and she is the only way anyone can put a stop to this insanity.

   Mr. Tsimhoni has proven that he would rather "win" this case and beat up his ex-wife than love and respect his children.  Mr. Tsimhoni, if you read this, please know the damage is done.  You have created a wound so deep in your children, it will take years for them to ever trust you again.  Every single time you force them to see you, you sink knives deeper into those wounds and twist and destroy.  YOU are doing this to your children.  Stop.  You have intelligent, emotionally healthy kids that love their mother.  Set your ego aside and LOVE THEM.

Welcome!

  My goal in launching Conscious Guardians is to be a voice for children, a resource for parents, and an advocate when justice is needed.

  I strongly believe in Conscious Parenting, as described in Dr. Shefali's book, "The Conscious Parent".  I believe in respecting children from the moment of their birth.

  Let's spread the word about Conscious Parenting.  Let's stand up for kids that don't have the voice or the courage or the respect to have their wishes heard.  Let's stop discipline and start behavior shaping.  Let's shift the parenting paradigm and provide children with all of the tools they need to be peaceful and happy adults.
