## Opinion text

KANNE, Circuit Judge,
concurring.
No area of the law generates more agonizing decisions than those involving child *476 custody determinations. Combining these determinations with the strongly held feelings about free speech and the work of social service agencies, produces a volatile mixture. Such is the situation in this case.
In my view, the facts of this case do not produce quite the same pictures that have been developed. I accept the outcome of this difficult case and concur in the result.
