This petition is weak. We need juries upon request to review and affirm or strike down court orders. Attorneys must be regulated by the people, not other attorneys. All States regulate professions except Attorneys are regulated by the Courts creating an illegal monopoly of the judicial processes. Nobody goes to jail without confirmation by a jury. The means to immediately implement these reforms exist in the Constitution but are mentioned nowhere here.REPORT COMMENTS

I was illegally separated from my child for 7 months. All based on lies I could prove! I provided the proper proof and was told I was a liar when I passed several mental evals when they accused me of a mental condition I didn't have. How can this happen? And I have found MANY MANY MANY families who have suffered the same or worse. Our children are being abused and damaged by this system...WHO IS PROTECTING THEM FROM THAT????!!!REPORT COMMENTS

In speaking of the air strikes on Syria President Trump said, "No child of God should ever suffer such horror." Our children are suffering a different horror but it's still a horror that will last a lifetime. Myself, my daughter and mt mother are victims of Family Court Corruption . My story is very long to tell but if given the chance I will more than gladly share it in person. Not only was my child taken from me but I was financially ruined by the system. All the while my ex who made 5 times what I did was living it up going on vacations, buying new clothes and accesories for his car and motorcycle.REPORT COMMENTS

Following my split after my ex had her boyfriend stay at my house, my ex relocated across the country. I followed her to remain part of my daughter's life. I'm responsible, went to iraq, have a master's degree, am positive, supportive and non-toxic. All I wanted was shared custody or at least adequate visitation. However the family court process and results are a joke. They declined joint custody, but did award me with bi-weekly visitation and two weeks in the summer, however I had to go to court multiple times to get the visitation, went months without being allowed to see my daughter while waiting for court, and then when she blatantly violated the court order, the court did nothing. I find it a real hypocrisy that I am court ordered to pay for way more than 50% (almost $700 a month) under the penalty of suspended drivers and business license and then JAIL, but she can withhold visitation and the court doesn't even care. I had to go to court two times jsut to get make up visitation. This takes a full day of leave from work, a hotel as the court is three hours from my house, - I have been to court now 7 or 8 times. This is what happens. The woman can leave the relationship of her own choice, get custody being that she is the one who spent more time with the child (Being that dad was at work all day, financing the whole thing) and then the non custodial parent has no rights. In my case I have another in-tact family. I can't spend every weekend begging the court to enforce visitation orders. They don't really enforce the visitation - its no quality of life to spend all of your vacation on court (when if I get to see my daughter in the summer I need all of that vacation to be authorized because the court ruled I have to be off work during the visits). It becomes a wasted effort as the court has stepped in taken your parental rights away, deemed you give way more than your share to your ex (who has no accountability on how she spends it). Then if she is vindictive you have a choice. Fight, and deal with the rage and injustice of a court who values your money, but could care less about visitation, or move on with your life. It takes away your role and responsibility as a parent. Its sick. Custody should be 50/50 and child support should be half of what it costs to raise a child. However there is a lobby involved here and the ones (Judges, lawyers, child support system) that profiteer off of pain, fear, and powerlessness probably keep this corrupt system in place. I pity them on judgment day.REPORT COMMENTS

My two daughters, ages 6 and 9, are the center of my world. I've given my daughters nothing but love over the course of their lives. I've never missed a child support payment. Indeed, I paid support prior to it being ordered, yet I see one day a week for two hours and the 1/3/5 weekends of each month. Despite them asking why they can't live with me, this is the SPO in Texas, and judges won't give them a voice until age 12. The research overwhelmingly provides evidence that children do best when both parents are significantly involved in their lives. I implore you to recognize the needs of children and disallow child custody to be big business. Equal parents deserve equal parenting time. Children need both parents.REPORT COMMENTS

I pay child support to my older son I see him 2x a week every other weekend and get him full time in the summer but we each get two weeks of uninterrupted time which I feel is crap bc it takes away my time with him. My older son I feel is brainwashed by his father and his girlfriend of 4 years. His father wants everything on his time and around his schedule it dont matter about my schedule and my other two childrens schedule which live with me and my boyfriend of almsot 3 years. He feel since he has him majority of the time its always his way or no way at all I have absolutely no say as the mother.REPORT COMMENTS

Emotional abuse needs to be recognized and considered by Family Courts. My story is too long to post, but I really feel like my court didn't care at all about me or my children. They sided with an abuser. He told me he would take them away from me and they helped him. He told me he would make my life hell and he did for many years. He told me I would never get a dime from him and I pay him child support. They don't care. They don't really know what's happening between the parents. They don't ask about emotional abuse. They need someone who can help the parent who really cares for the children more than they care for themselves.REPORT COMMENTS

Well in my story is was in a relationship with a lady we was talking about getting married in a year she came home from the doctor one day said he told her if she was going to have any more kids she would have to do that year she would led at some point after a year would have to have surgery on her female parts and would be able to have kids any more she was crying stated that she so wanted to have a child with me where it would be a part of me and her . Guess I fail for it hook line and sinker we decited to try all it took was one time she got pregnant and next day told me she didn't need me any more she has my kid and now I have to pay her . Also later on she came to me and said she wanted to do the right thing and get married where are kid would have a mom and dad even thow when my son was born she never gave him my last name she gave him her last name witch was the same last name of her other kids dads name and had him calling her other kids dad as his dad any ways got her to singe a prenump because of what happen in the beginning and got married was married 3 weeks witch was only together one week before I went back to work while at work 2 weeks she text me told me she wanted a devoice and so it started got to court she never told her lawyer about the prenump and lied about child support payments that I had made sent my son was born . But I work in the oil field like her dad did and her mother set down as was telling my mother right after me and my ex was married how her dad worked in the oil field and she devorce her dad and took him to the cleaner with child support . Not all women are that way but a lot are they know if they have a kid they can live off the man with child support but I bet if you look back from 1900 to time child support started I thank in 1975 there was a lot less devoice back then because people new having kids was not away to make a living back in those days and families work out there problems in stead of I don't need you I have your child so there fore I have your money and your going to pay me and yes goose both way for man are woman . And if your work off shore in the oil field the child support payments are high for one kid over 1000.00 a month that kinda a money for one kid she doesn't need to work to the fact she dropped all the child support from her other kids dad cause she has mine to live off of she has also told me she uses the child support money from me as her income and that is how she gets credit to buy everything and to pay for it all. And I all so had to file bankruptcy as wellREPORT COMMENTS

Dishonesty, even gross dishonesty, is often not punished. The family court system punishes those who have worked hard as earners and savers and gives passes to those who commit gross deceptions and frauds. Lawyers who lie get paid and have zero accountability. It is a corrupted system. The honest parties often have to shoulder the legal fees of meritlessl litigations initiated by the dishonest and dishonorable parties. Very unjust and rotten system.REPORT COMMENTS

Although damage is done psychologically and emotionally and hopefully as the child in our case grows older she'll recognize it for what it is... being brainwashed by an angry parent and making a child hate her "other family" and fearful of them is sick and wrong. The parent that does this is not acting in the best interest of the child and the courts need to recognize it! When the other parent continues to "fight" for the right to parent and goes into court over and over it should be taken serious instead of the other parent being suspect for trying to reduce child support or just being greedy and wanting the child more than for just "visits." When a parent has no history of violence toward children (and the other children in the home) a parent should not be scorned by the courts. Therefore a parent should not have pay for the right to "visit" their child while they are scrutinized by a "monitor" that is being paid by that parent and required to travel for miles and miles to a place of the "other" parent's choice!REPORT COMMENTS

I am a full time firefighter/paramedic. I was denied rights to my son because my sons mother said I was incapable of caring for our child. I take care of people for a living including children. I went to school to learn how to deliver and care for newborns, I have certification for pediatric advanced life support, and I have been a part of pediatric resuscitation incidents. Yet my ex believes I can't change a diaper, make a bottle, or love my child the same as her. I can't believe a court even entertained her argument and reduced my time. This needs to be fixed.REPORT COMMENTS
