Family Court Crisis:The Susan Murphy Milano Show

Posted by Claudine Dombrowski

The Susan Murphy Milano Show: Family Court Crisis

Wednesday, July 8th at 3:00 PM CST- LIVE

The number to call is 347-326-9337

Silently in court houses across America battered women seeking to leave their violent world with their children are encountering the silent world of the legal system. A legal system designed to protect is arming abusers with the tools for violent fathers to use their children to punish and control those mothers fleeing in hopes of a safer environment. And all too often, the women along with the children are killed.

We say to a woman in danger “leave, go to a shelter, seek an order of protection, keep your children safe” only to be slammed and knocked to on her feet by a legal systemthat rewards dangerous fathers sole custody of the children. The legal system is ill equipped to handle and decide matters that often involve life and death.

Join us live on Live at 3:00 PM Central Standard Time on The Susan Murphy Milano show as we continue our discussion on “Mother’s Without Custody.” On the show is co-founder of Protective Mothers Alliance Janet Levinson and a mother who has been fighting the system like thousands of others for over 10 years.

If you are a non-custodial mother or a mother facing custodial issues before, after or during a divorce or custody battle please consider joining Non-Custodial Moms Breaking The Silence:

Maternal Deprivation Inflicted on Battered Women and Abused Children

Maternal Deprivation Inflicted on Battered Women and Abused Children

— batteredmomslosecustody

This site is devoted to exposing the re-victimization of women and children who are victims of domestic abuse and/or child abuse. The legal system is being used to inflict Maternal Deprivation on children and their mothers. Networks of unethical lawyers, Guardian Ad Litems, Psychologists, and other purveyors of “Parental Alienation Syndrome” junk science will advocate for abusers and vilify protective parents FOR PROFIT. Evidence of abuse does not matter and is ignored when these unethical Parental Alienation accusing professionals show up in cases and use rhetoric to accuse the mother of being an “Alienator” then give visitation and/or custody to the abuser often removing the mother from the child’s life all together. Any mother who has been victimized by this fraudulent scheme needs to get the message out to the world and expose these people.

For details of this Maternal Deprivation as a form of Abuse click here: Maternal Deprivation Research

Maternal Deprivation was inflicted on monkeys by Harry Harlow with terrible consequences. Now this abuse is spreading to humans promulgated by unethical psychologists who are experimenting in social engineering on human children.

Insanity? Nope. Family Court in Kansas

Posted by Claudine Dombrowski

http://justiceformothers.com/default.aspx

A victims first scream is for help;

A victims second scream is for justice.

Imagine that your home was broken into, vandalized and burglarized one night. You were roughed up and tied up while he ransacked your home. Fortunately, he left you shaken and hurt, but not seriously injured such as to require hospitalization. You were successfully able to identify him and his vehicle as he sped away.

Upon your call to the police, the offender is apprehended with the goods in his possession and brought to court to stand trial for his crimes against you.

You arrive in court and the first thing the judge asks you is if you are willing to go to mediation with the burglar. When you refuse, the judge labels you ‘uncooperative’ and ‘hostile’ to the burglar's continued relationship with you. Even though the burglar was caught red-handed with your goods, and you were an eye witness to the crime, the judge now decides that he can't possibly decide the case without first appointing a social worker termed a "burglary evaluator" to assess yours and the burglar's relationship.

When the social worker/evaluator can not determine what is best for your relationship or your stolen goods, they ask the judge to have both you and the burglar psychologically evaluated, because you seem "anxious", "angry" and "uncooperative" with the burglar. The court-appointed psychologist, who has no experience in being the victim of violent crime and has not studied the effects of such trauma, also determines that you are uncooperative, hostile, anxious, and you have a negative opinion of the burglar that can't be healthy. After all, the burglar had nothing but good things to say about you, your home and your belongings during his evaluation.

The psychologist recommends that you be restricted from access to your belongings until you can accept the burglar's rightful relationship to continued access to your home and personal effects. He further recommends you attend weekly conjoint therapy with the burglar to work on being more cooperative with him in the future.

All at your expense of course.

The judge decides to wait a year or so to see how you work through your relationship with the burglar before he can decide upon the burglary conviction. He chastises you that you had better really work at the relationship or he may just grant the burglar's request to maintain sole ownership of your property. None of these "experts" can be sued civilly for their negligence and incompetence because they have judicial or quasi-judicial immunity.

Insanity? Nope. Family court in Kansas.

Domestic violence victims walk into family court to ask a judge to protect their children from a known abuser. Instead, they face the above-described nightmare that can span years and put them into financial ruin, mental and emotional exhaustion, not to mention directly back into the path of the abuser. Judges pressure them to mediate, assign a custody evaluator who pressures them to accept 50/50 joint physical and legal custody with theirs and their children's abuser.

They and their children are put through psychological evaluations by persons with little to no training in domestic violence, and some judges force co-parenting therapy and reunification therapy upon mother and child with their perpetrators. If they can not fit into the mold of cooperative "co-parenting" and the children continue to be reluctant to visit with the man that abused them, they face losing custody to him.

We have spent millions of dollars printing brochures and making public service announcements to victims of domestic violence encouraging them to leave violent relationships and telling them of the harmful effects on their children.

But when they do get the courage to leave, the same system tells them they are wrong to try to protect their children once they have divorced their abuser, and that they should now fully and freely support unsupervised visitation with the same dangerous person. Contrary to popular belief, children of batterers can be at just as much risk psychologically, sexually, and even physically after the couple splits up as they were when the family was still together. In fact, many children experience the most damaging victimization from the abuser at this point.

Most people assume that a fit mother never loses custody. If only that were true. The American Judges Association reports that "Studies show that batterers have been able to convince authorities that the victim is unfit or undeserving of sole custody in approximately 70% of challenged cases." Unfortunately, the state of Kansas’s current laws also says that none of these people can be held accountable, either.

And so we go on, handing down family violence from one generation to the

next...

Alice Doesn't Live There Anymore (she is dead)

Alice Doesn't Live There Anymore

The murder of Alice Morrin, wife mother and former fox newsassignment editor was one of the most viewed tragedies of the day. She died on Sunday evening as she was texting a friend for help.

You could feel the fear asAlice says to the friend she is texting, where her children are in the home while she is attempting to escape upstairs as her husband has both a knife and a shotgun in his possession, shouting in anger his intentions to kill her. Alice’s mind no doubt races to thoughts of her 2 daughters hiding, hoping they are safe in the house. We do not know what Alice was thinking, but we do know she was pleading for her life.

We will never know what a woman counting moments like the ticking of a second hand on a watch about to be killed is thinking. Or the days, hours and years building up to a life of fear resulting in an unimaginable tragedy.

This is not a story but a human being who fought for her life literally with her last breath. This is a tragedy most would rather not read or gloss over and pretend they understand what it is like to live and wear fear like a garment of clothing that is virtually impossible to remove. Or criticize and perhaps points fingers in blame thinking “Alice was smart enough” or Alice should have had the sense to get out sooner” or if only Alice had told someone she might still be alive.” If only, if only, if only-are words that have no meaning to a victim of domestic violence often forced into a powerless life. Alice Morrin was in the middle of a divorce, she could no longer live her life in fear. Many women are not prepared as they end the relationship, often dropping their guard down because they feel a false sense of empowerment or security in knowing freedom is around the corner.

Seeking a divorce is dangerous unless a self defense strategy to remain alive is included prior to seeking the services of an attorney or filing the paperwork yourself to end the relationship.

Alice Morrin will never fix another meal for her daughters. Alice will never help her daughter's with their homework assignments. Alice will not be available in person to celebrate her daughters birthdays.

Alice has a new address, permanent residency in a cemetary.

If you are in an abusive relationship, you need a plan, not a cemetary plot!

Moving out, Moving on will guide you through the necessary steps of ending a relationship safely.
