All hypothetical situations, Counsellor, and I think you've engaged in a lot of fishing expeditions. Unless you have a good idea that there is something there, I would never let you have access. But if you enjoy it, and can get away with it, more power to you. I would suggest that hostility to the other parent expressed in a diary is almost to be expected in a nasty divorce. Where else can you vent? And then once it's out of your system, go back to trying to cooperate despite it all.

My own position is that scorched-earth contested custody cases are destructive to the children. Snooping through each other's diaries is the sort of petty nastiness that is never forgotten or forgiven. Divorce lawyers make divorce worse, not better. If people were forbidden to hire divorce lawyers until two years after separation, and just used court clerks to institute child support orders, I think it would be better for almost everyone.
