Dianna believes that the most significant social problem facing America today is father absence, and yet the greatest and least recognized force behind America's epidemic of fatherlessness is the way in which courts routinely deny fathers shared parenting, ignore access and visitation denial complaints, and allow a parent to move away with their children.

Dianna believes that children's needs can best be met when both parents are actively and positively involved in their children's lives and advocates for shared parenting because it accords equal rights and responsibilities to both parents while promoting the best interests of children after a divorce.

Dianna is a sought after speaker and has spoken all over the country regarding; shared parenting, gender issues, child support, access and visitation denial, paternity fraud, and other divorce and family related issues.
