STOP COURT ORDERED CHILD ABUSE

Have you ever had to look into the eyes of a child that is crying and wants protection from abuse, and then had to tell them that you can’t because the court didn't believe you? Then watch your tearful eyed child walk out your door and into the hands of their abuser. If you answered no, then you have been spared the fastest growing injustice we have ever been faced with in California. Yes, we have financial problems, health care problems, housing problems, but those are all replaceable commodities, BUT our children are not. Why are they put on the back burner, and why are their cries for help going unheard by the courts?
The California Family Courts are abusing children in alarming numbers. Children that have been abused and or neglected by a parent, are being forced to continue to have unmonitored visitation, or worse, live with the abusive parent. Family Courts are battering protective parents to such an alarming rate, with allowing the trendy catch phrase “Parental Alienation” or other sugar coated wording that means the same, as a defense for the abusive parent and their attorney’s. Parental Alienation is not a real syndrome, and has never been recognized as one, however the courts are allowing abusive parents to use this as a defense in a custody case, where a child has been abused or made allegations of abuse. The protective parent has sought help within the court, to protect their children from further abuses, yet are met with a horrifying outcome. Protective parents are turned into the abusers of parental alienation, with no chance to prove they are innocent, while the abuse or neglect allegations are forgotten. This is a growing pandemic in the California Family Courts, who are by far the most financially driven courts of the country. Our children’s futures are bleak, when they can’t find anyone to protect them from being abused and or neglected. Protective parents, mostly mothers have become the target. We need immediate reform as our pleas have fallen on deaf ears far too long. Children finally find the strength to stand up and say, “Help me,” but then are re-offended by the courts. This is beyond unacceptable, and we need it to stop today. No more court appointed minors counsels, therapists, monitors, evaluators. All with whom seem to be driven by financial gain. Commissioners and Judges are also gaining financial security by allowing the corruption to continue. Cases involving abuse and or neglect allegations should be heard in criminal court. Force the abusers to defend themselves, not the victims.
Our children are the future, and we need a change to make sure that their futures are bright, and that they want to live to see tomorrow. Clear cut laws need to be put into place, whereas attorneys and judges can’t manipulate the system to benefit financially. “Guidelines” have been written, yet they are not enforced because they are not laws. Complaints have been filed with the California Bar Association, yet no violations are ever found. We need an audit into the systems who are denying complaints against the courts, and the court appointed entities, attorneys, psychologists, evaluators, and monitors.
Do not allow the abuse to continue. If you or anyone you know, has been victimized by the courts after attempting to protect a child from abuse and or neglect, please sign this petition. Our children are counting on you.

Court ordered lawyers present their opinion that I cannot cross examine. My rights are hereby violated.
I am a Guardian trying to protect my Granddaughter and have been in the court system for over 4 years and have watched the sweetest little girl be abused and ignored by the contra costa court system due to her court appointed attorney Jon C. Weir. I agree these men need to be removed and reguardless of who you are you abuse or allow and child to be abused you should be tried as a criminal in criminal court.
Protect these children.
I am going through the same thing in Texas. Right now I think I have about 2 weeks left with my girls (that is when the hearing is set anyway) before the "parental alienation" trump card is slammed down on me. The burden of forgetting is on the abused. We are the ones that are physically and emotionally violated and yet we must maintain our composure and even be NICE to our abuser. We are force-fed daily interactions with someone who smirks at our every sign of weakness and uses our basic "fight or flight" reactions to destroy us in court. My ex sprained my daughters back. His new wife scratched up her arm with her fingernails. They call her names and even SUED HER when she was NINE to go to the TEXAS YOUTH COMISSION if she didn't attend her visitation!!! And yet, it is perceived, that I have alienated. That this is my fault. This guy slammed me into walls when we were married and forced sex on me on the floor of our daughters bedroom. THE CHILDREN WITNESSED MY ABUSE. They MUST go with this person despite my oldest developing an anxiety disorder because of the way THEY treat her. PLEASE STOP FORCE FEEDING US OUR ABUSERS, ESPECIALLY TO THE CHILDREN!!!!
the courts ordered my son to be with his father based on false allegations.everything he has said is a lie but because i am disabled and take supervised medication, the judge assumed it was true.now I am fighting to clear my name and get back my legal rights...in the meantime the alienation and psychological abuse continue.thye have put my son in the hand of a 2nd generation abuser, with the 1st generation caring for him..the system sucks and with no accountability...
I married a man from another state who I found out later is a Child Sex Offender but kept the secret from me when I married him. He was not registered then, but because of my questioning he is now! I was denied the right to know, but I didn't want other parents to be denied the right to protect their children. After proof of his abuse to our own child and myself, the family court listened to false allegations made against me instigated by a CHILD SEX OFFENDER father and granted this CHILD SEX OFFENDER custody of our child. Court documents even refer to him as "an excellent role model". I fought the case all the way to Supreme Court only for Supreme Court to refuse to hear our case. The false allegations against me were UNFOUNDED, yet a family court judge in York County, South Carolina granted custody to this REGISTERED CHILD SEX OFFENDER father. My child and I have suffered tremendously, and I don't want my case to open the door for more BLATANT CHILD ENDANGERMENT. This case began with my child and I being his vicctim...now we are VICTIMS OF A VERY BROKEN SYSTEM!
Family Court was my first experience with any court system. The failure of the courts to protect my children has, so far, after many years, has one of my sons suffering from PTSD so severely that he is now in an Emotionally Disturbed student who now attends his classes in a Special Educaiton Classroom. My son was born normal & healthy. The schoo district tested him & has extended his Emotional Disturbance qualifications from 7th grade through high school. He used to get A's & B's: he got F's in all his classes last quarter. He used to have friends, he now avoids all peers & people. He does not trust anyone except for me, his mother. He suffers from the majority of symptoms of PTSD. HIs younger brother & sister suffer also, but their outcomes have yet to be seen. My childen's & my civil liberties have been striped; their abusive father's abusive pattern escalates everytijme I go to court to protect my children. He gets additional child custody time, even though he has not paid for his half of medical, dental & daycare expeses since the year 2005!! It is now 2012!! The only way they are now able to recieve counseling with our joint custody is because my son attempted suicide, twice, and was admitted twice in an adolescent psychiatric unit. He told several doctors of the abuse. They referred us to Child & Youth Services though our county. My son now sexually & physically abuses animals, needs to be supervised 24/7 for his own protection, as well as others. My son used to be a normal, shy, sweet child. His father has had no consequences for his abuse. The only thing saving my children is that they have stood up to their father together & refuse to visit him, or spend the night. They will only be in his presence if I wait in my car outside whereever they are visiting with their Dad. He has backed off from visiting them with these new facts. Our children's new county appointed child psych & child psychiatrist both agree that their father should only be in their presence with supervision. This is the ONLY thing that is saving this situaiton. NONE of this has been ordered by the court. My children 13,11 & 9 had to fight for themselves. I will NOT be going to court to bring in the new evidence because I am afraid of loosing more custody &/or not being allowed to see my children. My son's PTSD's have been severe enought to cost me my job, my entire savings. I am now unemployed & homeless (living with an amazing aunt & uncle). I used to be a Special Education Teacher for children ages 5-13. I have no criminal or legal problems prior to this. I am college educated, normal. This has been the single most devasting thing in my life. Being revictimized by the family court system is something I could not imagine any family enduring, let alone my own. I have reason to believe that not only have my children been emotionally, mentally, physically & psychologically abused, but sexually too. Prior to getting a divorce I had not known of
They will have to throw me in jail for contempt, because I WILL NOT WILLINGLY hand my daughter over to continue to be abused just because some moron judge says I have to! I refuse! If they jail us all, then what? Will THAT be news worthy? This is for you Rachel! Mommy LOVES you and has a moral and legal DUTY to protect you no matter what!
President Obama grew up in a family with an abusive father.

Yet our President decided that it would be a good idea to put millions of tax dollars into a fund for "Responsible Fatherhood" programs, where abusers can have full access to their victims under these programs with the help of bias and slighted doctors and therapists. These so called professionals are making money hand over fist, actually placing abused children back with their abusers.

While the CDC just released a report about what's really going on out there with regards to sexual abuse and violence, all which the Father's Rights groups, the Responsible Fatherhood Initiative act all tries to hide.

When is someone going to wake up, connect the dots, stop the funding and support of abusers, and PROTECT THESE CHILDREN?

Here's a link to make your stomach churn. Don't think that it's a problem? Don't think that you need to take action to STOP COURT ORDERED CHILD ABUSE?

My daughter keeps asking me why mommy did you let me go with him when I've told you that he hurt my pee, pee. I am not lying. We have told the courts, cps, and I was found in contempt of court and he is filing to get more visitation time. My lawyer is telling me the there is not much more that we can do. I need help.
WE ARE SUPPOSED TO PROTECT ARE CHILDREN. THIS SYSTEM IS FAILING INNOCENT CHILDREN EVERYDAY.
Makes me sick to know that when a child is being abused and then they want that child to have a relationship with the abuser~going thru it personally~no one want to "see" the light of things..there way or the high way~
My son is a victim of court ordered child abuse. I have been in court 16 months supporting my son's decision to be safe from his father's abuse. Regardless of documentation the court is ordering therapy on top of numerous details I must comply with to keep physical custody of my son. Regardless of doctors, therapists and psychological evalution reports the court continues to try and force a communication that has put my son's life at risk. He has developed PTSD, depression and battles a suicidal behavior now. As a single mother of three children, I struggle daily in effort to conform to the demands made by the court as well as the financial aspect of ongoing therapy not covered by my health insurance. Police reports, indicated child abuse reports, sexual abuse reports, domestic voilence case still open after eleven years, psychological evaluations and more... All this and my son is still at risk for being put back in the hands of his abuser. CPS told me to leave my husband or they would take my children. Had I known they would not protect my son too... I would have stayed! Now it's too late and nobody is protecting my son. My biggest battle is his father's fundamental right to bare and raise children. What about my son's rights? Children have the fundamental right to protection from abuse, neglect, exploitation and discrimination. Please help children like my son be safe from court ordered child abuse. Some of their lives depend on it.
