About this ebook

The Kid in the Courtroom tells the story of a young boy searching for his voice while caught in the middle of a confusing custody battle, where life-changing decisions are made by adults—and a judge who never asks to hear from him.

The book explores the emotions children experience when their voices go unheard in decisions about their lives, and reminds readers that no matter how young someone may be, their voice deserves to be heard.

Through this story, Cayden hopes to provide the resource he wishes he had growing up—one that helps children feel seen, heard, and empowered, while encouraging families to have meaningful conversations about emotions that often go unspoken during difficult family changes.
