### Summary (Father-Favorable)
The document presents Aaron Surina’s response to a declaration filed by his estranged spouse, Sirinya Surina, in a contentious child custody and property division case. Aaron asserts that there are several instances of unfairness and unethical practices against him.
1. He claims the petitioner concealed the fact that their children were living in a house with active Tuberculosis for 5 months and refused to have them tested despite recommendations from health experts. This reveals a disregard for the children’s health and wellbeing.
2. Aaron accuses the petitioner of intentionally violating a court order given with an interpreter, removing him from the healthcare decisions regarding their children. This violation was met with a motion for a restraining order against Aaron, further limiting his involvement in his children’s lives.
3. He believes the petitioner and her team are making false statements about the sale of the house and other financial matters, suggesting they are attempting to perpetrate fraud.
4. The petitioner has allegedly neglected the children’s dental needs, with Aaron asserting that she took care of her dental needs while ignoring those of the children.
5. Aaron expresses concern about the wellbeing of his children, pointing out instances of physical abuse that they have allegedly suffered at the hands of their mother.
6. He claims that the petitioner’s team is attempting to remove him from healthcare decisions of his children in order to conceal further abuse and injuries.
7. Aaron also alleges that his limited parenting hours do not allow him the necessary time to schedule and attend important medical appointments for his children.
8. He accuses his estranged spouse’s legal counsel, Keith Glanzer, of submitting false statements that he knows to be untrue, questioning his ethical stance.
Overall, Aaron Surina’s declaration suggests that he is a victim of unfair and unethical conduct, which includes alleged violations of court orders, attempts to obstruct his involvement in his children’s healthcare, and deceptive practices regarding financial matters. He claims these actions are part of a strategy to remove him from his children’s lives, despite his demonstrated concern for their health and wellbeing.
