This isn't about anyone but, who is going to care for that children and if that means you gotta step in and play your card. DO IT! as the only one that will suffer if you don't is that child.
I would step in that poor child will be a product of a divorce and at some point someone needs to step in and say this isn't about your relationship anymore this is about the child and if you have damaging information that if not said could traumatize this poor child for some time...Then you need to step in. If you loose a friend so be it, that child can't protect himself remember the saying, It takes a village to raise a child...

You only need to get involved if the information you are holding would help the child go to a caring parent. Otherwise, you should stay out of the situation. The judge will have the final outcome, and depending on where it's being held, most of the time unless there's a lot of hard evidence, the Mom will get custody of the child with visitation on Dad's behalf. This is usually the way things end up.

If this case is causing stress on the new baby, then yes I would get involved. As a RN for 10 years, I can tell you that babies, new born babies know when there is tension, and anger. They react, usually by screaming. What good dad would use his child for his own gain? Maybe the dad is a decent guy at heart and just does not know how to tell his wife he loves her and would like to work on the marriage. I dont know the whole story but if you feel in your heart that one or the other is the right parent for the baby then you should feel comfortable being a character witness. Dont do it out of friendship do it because it is the right thing to do or you may feel guilty later.

It would depend on what the unfavorable information was. Is it life threatening to the child? Regardless of who your loyalties lie with in a situation like that, if a person has harmful info about either of them, it should be used in a logically way only after weighing all consequences.
Some things are better left between families.

If one party in the relationship wants the divorce , it will eventually happen. there is nothing worse than trying to hang on to someone that has moved on. As to the character of one of the parents. Unless it has an influence on the well being of the child I would stay out of it. It will always come back to bite you in the butt.Both parties will resent you for meddling. I speak from experience.

once you're speaking about no longer having any father parent interior the abode, my opinion isn't any. once you're speaking about having a father parent interior the abode, then as long as a similar father is there continuously.....certain. I had a daughter that had 2 children by using 2 diverse fathers. the daddy of the only accurate newborn changed into round for potty education and such for the first newborn (even as waiting for the 2d one). My daughter gave up the ghost and the daddy of the first newborn took custody of the youngster. It changed into like my son-in-regulation misplaced 0.5 his kinfolk rapidly. each man or woman is adjusting notwithstanding it is been a lengthy demanding street. i imagine a newborn can adjust to the perception of two or extra dads, yet they favor one strong father parent no count number who the genuine dad is.

Use your best judgement. Sometimes it hurts the case when other people try to get involved that don't approach the matter professionally. Don't get involved if you are emotionally involved, but you may be able to help them to pay for an attorney, if you really care.

Stay out of this. Good karma almost requires it. This is an issue between the two parties involved, and nobody else.

I'd stay out of it. Be supportive of the friend, but the custody case is theirs to deal with.
