A Michigan judge has sent three siblings between the ages of nine and 14 to a juvenile detention center after they refused to have lunch or speak to their father as part of a custody agreement. Judge Lisa Gorcyca presided over a hearing on supervised parenting time relating to Omer Tsimhoni, his ex-wife Maya and their three children in Oakland County's family court last month. She criticized Liam Tsimhoni, 14, and his siblings Roee, 10, and Natalie, nine, for avoiding their father - and even compared their behavior to that of murderer Charles Manson and his cult. She ordered the youngsters - whom she said had been 'brainwashed' by their mother - to begin a new, 'healthy relationship' with Mr Tsimhoni by apologizing and sitting down for lunch with him.Judge Lisa Gorcyca presided over a hearing on supervised parenting time relating to Tsimhoni family in civil court in Oakland County, MI, last monthShe criticized Liam, 14, Roee, 10, and Natalie Tsimhoni, nine, for avoiding their father, Omer, and ordered them to have lunch with him in cafeteriaWhen the youngsters refused, she held each of them in contempt of courtShe has now sent them to Children's Village - a juvenile detention centerTrio will spend summer there - and could stay there when school startsMr Tsimhoni claims his ex-wife, Maya Tsimhoni, 'brainwashed' his childrenShe denies this; says kids are wrongly being punished for messy divorce
