Would you believe the bloke that invented the lobotomy got a Nobel prize for his efforts. Oddly enough people still have brain surgery for psychiatric conditions.
From the guidelines the APA seem to run a reasonable operation as regards child custody, and not one mention of lobotomy

I suppose you want me to concede that a child custody specialist can't possibly be an expert because 60 years ago someone in a related profession decided lobotomies were a good idea.
