The Real Truth About Deadbeat Parents

The headline reads: "Deadbeat Dads/Moms."

The article then goes on to inform you of how they refuse to pay child support and how they live in luxury while their children go without food, clothing, and the bare necessities to live.

Is this depiction accurate? If so, how often does it happen? And -- perhaps most importantly -- why does it happen?

Although the answers to these questions will vary depending on the situation, it does appear that the majority of so-called "deadbeats" default on their support payments for one of two reasons: they can't afford to pay them, or they have little or no contact with their children and the parental bond has eroded.

Lawrence Bloom, an attorney with offices in New York and New Jersey and an advisory board member for Parental Rights, says the non-custodial parent simply can't afford it in most cases. "They have new obligations, and they're doing the best they can," says Bloom. "The court based the child support on the two jobs he was working, and now, due to a new wife or medical reasons, he can't work the second job."

Dianna Thompson, agrees. "In some cases, child support is set unrealistically high. Child support can be based on a capacity to earn on imputed income rather than on actual earnings. Non-payment of child support is not always willful, as some are inclined to believe. There will always be unforeseen circumstances affecting a family's financial stability, such as job loss, illness, injuries, or disabilities that can happen to any family whether it's intact or not.

Custody Makes a Difference

Statistically, payment of child support is linked to custody and/or frequent visitations.

The most recent U.S. Census Bureau data shows that fathers with joint custody pay their child support 90 percent of the time;

fathers with visitation pay theirs 79.1 percent of the time;

and fathers with neither joint custody nor visitation pay support only 44 percent of the time.

These statistics point to the second reason why most non-custodial parents don't pay child support.

David Wildstein, a fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML) and chair of the family law department of Wilentz, Goldman and Spitzer in New Jersey, says: "Some people default to retaliate because they're not getting visitation -- or the type of visitation -- they want."

Legally, child support and custody are always treated separately, but non-custodial parents will try to link them. Kay Kullen, a spokeswoman for the National Child Support Enforcement Association, adds: "Child support agencies have no legal jurisdiction over enforcement of visitation or custody.

However, each state child support agency has instituted access and visitation programs that link parents to resources that can assist in the resolution of visitation issues."Most judges find it easier to make a decision based on finances (child support) rather than on emotional issues (custody/visitation). "Courts have trouble enforcing visitation rights because it's so easy to argue that 'he or she was abusive' or 'the children are afraid of him or her' to explain why the schedule wasn't honored," says Brian Muldoon, a mediator and the author of The Heart of Conflict.

Parenting issues can be emotional, risky, and complicated for a judge to wade through. "Money is much easier: either it was paid or it wasn't. And it can take months for a court to rule on parenting issues (with the appointment of experts, and so forth), while non-payment of support can be decided in minutes."

Separating the Issues
Although some divorcing parents try to combine the two issues, the law says that child support and access are independent covenants. And rightly so: otherwise, an abusive parent could refuse to pay support unless the custodial parent allowed the children to spend time with him or her.

Gene is a 35-year-old man who has been wrangling with his ex-wife about child support for and access to their 8-year-old daughter, Katy, for the past three years. "I'm in and out of court all the time," he says bitterly. "I've already spent more on legal fees than I would have had to spend to support Katy to age 18 -- about $200,000." Gene stopped paying child support 15 months after his ex, Mary, stopped allowing him to see their daughter. "She hauls me into court regarding payment, and I haul her into court regarding access.

I was a great father -- she denies access only to yank my chain. Do you really think it's in Katy's best interests that she grow up without knowing her father?"Probably not, but is it in her best interests to grow up without adequate financial support?

Studies show that the children who adjust best to divorce are those who remain in close contact with both parents, as long as those parents are not in constant conflict. Assuming that Gene and Mary can agree to resolve their issues with each other -- through counseling or mediation, for instance --

Gene is correct in thinking that it would be in Katy's best interests to have regular, positive contact with her father. But until that happens, Gene must separate his anger at Mary from his obligations to Katy and start making child-support payments again.

Old arguments, old hurts, and anger from the past can cause couples to behave like Gene and Mary, each of whom is completely uninterested in trying to see things from the other's point of view.

Each would rather spend the next decade fighting in court than admit any responsibility for creating and maintaining the deadlock they're in now.Even though child support and access are independent covenants, disgruntled custodial and non-custodial parents do have a few avenues to help them resolve their disputes. In 1997, funds were allocated to all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and territories for a new grant program as part of the Child Support Enforcement (CSE) program. Activities include mediation, counseling, education, development of parenting plans, visitation enforcement, and development of guidelines for visitation and alternative custody arrangements.

How Is the Money Spent?

The resentment, hurt, and mistrust generated by an acrimonious divorce can cause reluctance or refusal to pay spousal or child support.

Sometimes, the payer believes the support is being spent frivolously or that it isn't really being used for the kids. How the money is spent is a frequently asked question.Liz does pay her child support for their two kids to her ex-husband, Joe, but she's getting increasingly upset about the way he seems to be spending it.

"Last year, he took trips to the Caribbean and Europe, and our children are walking around looking like street urchins, with ragged and ill-fitting clothes and sneakers that are more hole than shoe," she fumes. "When they come to visit me, I end up buying them clothes and toiletries even though I'm now on a very limited budget." Liz thinks it's adding insult to injury that she's footing the bill for her ex to live "the good life" while their children do without, and she has considered withholding support until Joe proves to her that her money is being spent on the children.

"But how could I face my kids if I stopped paying for them?" she asks. Liz, who owns and runs a small retail business, works too many hours to have her kids on a full-time basis. But she has recently begun to examine her options more closely to see if there's any way that she could have primary custody and still be able to support her family.

"Until then, I just have to come up with coping strategies such as getting good-quality hand-me-downs from my sister's kids, and keeping most of these clothes at my apartment so my kids will have something decent to wear when they're with me."Parents like Liz feel it's wrong that the courts are only interested in whether support is paid and not in how it's spent. There are no state laws that require an accounting of how child support is being spent.

People become angry or upset when they see no evidence that their child-support payments are being spent on their children, and this sometimes causes them to start withholding payments. Unlike Liz, some parents use this strategy in an attempt to force the custodial parent to start spending money on the kids.

Aside from paying child support, a non-custodial parent who has regular access to his or her kids will often provide non-cash support. This includes buying birthday gifts; taking their children on holidays; buying them clothes, food and groceries; paying partial medical expenses and or child care expenses; and summer-camp fees.

Resolving Conflicts about Child Support
Going to court isn't the only way to resolve disputes about support or visitations. Before litigating, you should "consider a mediation session to discuss what the problem is," suggests Carol Butler, Ph.D., a mediator and therapist in New York. However, mediation can be very difficult if someone is looking for revenge or is simply being vindictive.

"If there's a real emotional problem, then the legal way may be the only option," Butler says.Improving the lines of communication and learning to cooperate with your ex will increase the odds of receiving your child-support. "Fostering a spirit of cooperation with your ex means laying down your weapons in the war of divorce to protect your children," advise Julie Ross and Judy Corcoran in their book Joint Custody with a Jerk. "It means that you stop being reactive and start being proactive...No matter what your feelings are, your children will be better off if you keep them as your central focus and work diligently at keeping the parenting relationship civil and cooperative."

What Can You Do?If your ex is employed and can afford to pay support, but "forgets" or simply fails to make regular payments, Wildstein suggests you consider a wage garnishment, which is an automatic deduction from your ex's wages. Other legal solutions include collecting child-support payments from your ex's income tax refunds, or having his/her driver's license revoked."If you find you can't pay, you may have to ask to pay a lower amount," Bloom says. "You'll need to have a good reason why you can't pay, however, such as a wife who can't work because of a medical condition, or that the amount of support was artificially high because the husband temporarily had a second job -- these are good reasons."A child raised without adequate support is at a significant disadvantage in life," writes Judge James W. Stewart in his book The Child Custody Book."Inadequate schools, poor health care, and a social environment in which the values of education and achievement will take a back seat to the tasks of obtaining food, shelter, and safety. An economically disadvantaged child will be far less likely to attend college, and the chances that he will drop out of school or engage in criminal conduct as a teenager or young adult are dramatically increased."

Quick Facts about Child Support

Custodial mothers represent 85.1 percent of all custodial parents.

Only 14.9 percent of fathers have custody of their children.

Custodial mothers are more likely to have an agreement or to be awarded child support than custodial fathers.

Custodial fathers are less likely to receive child-support payments than mothers.

66 percent of fathers lack the financial resources to pay the allotted payment of child support.

40 percent of mothers reported that they had interfered with the fathers' visitation to punish the ex-spouse.

43.8 percent of non-custodial parents provided health insurance as part of the agreement or award.

More than 1.5 million children -- nearly 2.5 percent of all U.S. children -- undergo the experience of parents separating or getting divorced every year.

There is nothing that will change Parenting of our children from the current practice to equal and Shared. Unless we finally understand and know the true Nature of One Law that rejects the very idea of equal Parenting.That law is USC 42/666 - It is the Law that enslaves Fathers and Their families to the most corrupt system in America Today, "The Child Support Enforcement System".

The Mouse Trap

Mouse Trap

A mouse looked through a crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife opening a package.

What food might it contain?
He was shocked to discover that it was a mouse trap!

Retreating to the farmyard,the mouse proclaimed the warning:
"There is a mouse trap in the house, there is a mouse trap in the house."

The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said,
"Mr.Mouse,
I can tell you this is a grave concern to you,
but it is of no consequence to me.
I cannot be bothered by it.

"The mouse turned to the pig and said to him,
"There is a mouse trapin the house."
"I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse," sympathized the pig,
"but there is nothing I can do about it but pray.
Be assured that you are in my prayers.

"The mouse turned to the cow,
who replied,
"Like wow, Mr. Mouse,
a mouse trap.
Am I in grave danger?
Duh!

"So the mouse returned to the house,
head down and dejected,
to face the farmer 's mouse trap alone.

That very night a sound was heard throughout the house,
like the sound of a mouse trap catching its prey.

The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught.
In the darkness,
she did not see that it was avenomous snake whose tail was snared in the trap.

The snake bit the farmer's wife.
The farmer rushed her to the hospital.
She returned home with a fever.
Now everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup,
so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's main ingredient.

His wife's sickness continued,
so friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock.

To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig.
The farmer's wife did not get well.

In fact, she died,
and so many people came for her funeral
that the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide meat for all of them to eat.

The next time you hear that someone is facing a problem
and you think that it does not concern you,
remember that when one is threatened,
we are all at risk.

A parable by Jean Hansen

Hummmm?

I am a member of the 'OhioClassAction' yahoo group and I thought I'd report something here that I've talked about there, and mix a few statistics in with it.

This isn't directly about child custody, but it touches on matters that go along with it.I wrote a letter to my Senator in Ohio (Sen. Schuler).

It was 8 pages long and nicely summarized the situation here in Ohio concerning alimony and the way this state is collecting a 2% tax on every dollar collected in alimony and child support.

Also, I pointed out that now, alimony (aka spousal support) is collected by the Child Support Enforcement Agency JUST LIKE it was child support.

It is even garnished from wages just like child support. Now, I assume you all are aware of the Federal Child Support Collection Incentive program? This is basically a contest between the 50 states on who can rake in the most money.

The Feds set aside 500 million dollars a year for the 'pot', and this pot is split by the states with the biggest slices going to the top 10 or so states - sort of like 'Grand Prize', 'First Prize', 'Second Prize', so on and so forth.

Well, last year, Ohio came in 3rd in this contest and their slice of the pie was right at 40 million dollars! I told my Senator was one of the parameters was on the 'scoring'. It was 'what is your state's proportion of child support orders relative to the total number of divorces in your state'? I asked the Senator to think about that for a minute.

Does that question not mean that even when the children or split 50-50 between the parents, that it is the monetary best interest of the state to make somebody pay somebody? Sure is!Then, I informed the Senator about a computer program called the 'Fin Plan' that is being used across this state every day by magistrates to automatically calculate child support, property settlements, AND alimony payments.

I asked the Senator who wrote this program, who sanctioned it, and who approved its usage? Our Senator NEVER heard of it.So he contacted the Ohio Bar Association to find out about it. Guess what, they never answered him after 3 months!

So, now, I believe I have his curiosity up, and he has sent an official request to the Chief Justice of the Ohio Supreme Court and asked about this computer program. That was about a month ago, and to my knowledge, he hasn't heard anything from them as yet.By the way, Ohio collected 1.9 BILLION dollars in child support last year.

I also asked the senator is it might be just possible is this total INCLUDED (illegally) alimony so that Ohio could rank higher in the Federal Contest. He hasn't answered that yet either. At any rate, this figure was for 1.2 million children.I also sent him copies of the law from Indiana and Kentucky (both neighboring states), showing that both have effectively done away with 'alimony'.

Both of these states have what is called 'spousal maintenance'. This only comes into play when there is a handicapped or special needs child involved that precludes one of the parents from being able to work full time.

AND, Indiana only charges a flat $2 processing fee on payments irregardless of the size of the payment.Anyway, I am anxious to see what the Ohio Supreme Court says in their response about the 'Fin Plan' computer program.

Also, I learned that in Ohio, no legislation gets out of committee without the approval of the Ohio Judicial Conference (aka JUDGES). So who is in control of our legislature??? Hmmmm????Thanks, Steve

John, in the 4th district it's Veto Caruso

I've read over this final decision by Judge Duggan a few times.

The document is allowing the move away of my daughters to live with their mother and her new husband, who has been arrested twice for Domestic Violence and twice for stealing in Rochester, NY from Albany, NY over 200 miles away.

Of course the new husband has never been convicted of these claims because charges were dropped but still Judge Duggan doesn't even make note of them in this decision....

Only says there is no report of convictions of any Domestic Violence on either side.

There are so many mistakes and incorrect information through out this document that it's sickening to think that this judge even has an education, in what I'm ask myself now. The spelling and grammar is deplorable through out the document. I showed the decision to a few friends and they all said they can't believe that any judge would write such a piece of crap.

We are all wonder if the judge actually wrote this or gave it to a clerk and stamped the document without reading a word of it? Would that be incompetence or malpractice? If a judge excuses himself from a decision, do the petitioner and respondent still have to pay their lawyer fees? Does this mean the petition has to go back to trial?

So I'm throwing this out to the group. Who do you report this kind of stuff to? I need phone numbers and contact info not just committee names. I know you are all going to say appeal but again this has taken a year and a half with this lame decision that won't hold up anyways. I would like a simple quick solution to get this over for everyone's sake, especially my daughters. Lord knows everything the court has done in the past just makes the situations worse and that has been no fault of mine.

To add to this I will admit I am talking to a high profile mediator that is disgusted with how everyone is being treated by the court system, not just me but all of us and is considering reporting all of this to the proper people who will take action they say. I only hope.

Groups. Help or Trouble?

In a recent volly of e-mails within a group - A person I considered a leader dropped to a point that shocked me. I feel We all must stand a little taller. I will not republish what this person wrote just my response. I Hope that can be respected. Richar'

----------------------------------------
This is one of the biggest problem with groups. All leaders must take the higher ground. Leaders are the ones who MUST UNDERSTAND that in this arena we are all walking wounded and in a state of triage.

Krightsradio and more specific me Richar' Farr have been slammed in e-mails and phone calls from-"The other side". In fact I have even received a death threat or two.

Yes it is tough. But let there be no mistake if you are going to be a cook in the kitchen you better be prepared to take the heat and sometimes you even get burned. But that is what a leader does he/she takes those instances of sour lemons and makes lemon aid.

We must stand together my friends. We must extend an open hand to those who oppose us! We only have this time in history to really make the change for the future of our children's lives.

So let us all know that even in the moments of our greatest despair, The greatest of us all will rise up and bring comfort and hope to those who seem to have lost all direction except to strike out against the very ones who are trying to make a difference.

Let's raise the bar and move this army in to the rightful battles. Then claim a lasting victory for us, our children and their generations yet to come.

Your Opinions - Equalize Rights for Parents

I am writing this hoping to bring public the need for change in existing legislation like the Violence Against Women Act and S105 and HR 240 Personal Responsibility, Work, and Family Promotion Act of 2005 and the problem of children not being awarded equal parenting time with both of their parents and no equality in the responsibility of supporting children.

About 70-80 percent of women have sole custody of children with the fathers being part-time visitors. Joint physical custody should be the law first and foremost unless there is cause otherwise. Federal programs should reward states that have education programs that emphasize the equal importance of both parents and laws that increase the amount of fathers who have joint physical custody with equal numbers of sole custody fathers vs. mothers.

Tax laws should be based on the amount of time either parent has them, not on custody. A large number of non-custodial parents pay the majority of the money that is spent on their children and pay the majority of taxes, but with no or little tax relief.

There also should be a more equitable approach by the state in formulating child support and child care programs. These programs should remove the disincentive for parents to increase their earnings by formulating programs that do not focus on incomes but rather focus on true economic conditions of raising children. Refer to the state's foster care system that has set amounts for support based on age and need of the children involved.

All laws should be gender neutral with no one sex getting more rights then the other. The Department of Justice reports that 36 percent or 835,000 of the 2.3 million victims of domestic violence are male victims. The 14th Amendment trumps special interest gender politics.

Why daddy?

Dearest Samantha,

Using my money, your mom's attorneys filed their response to my appellatebrief <http://www.loveisearned.com/html/appellate%20brief.htm> andsupplemental<http://www.loveisearned.com/html/supplemental%20appellate%20brief.htm>appellate brief to continue to keep you from me. Because you're only5-years old, you're too young to understand how this works. So, let meexplain it to you. You see, your mom and a lot of very evil people (e.g., her attorneys and thejudges) want to keep me from you. (Why daddy?) It's certainly a goodquestion baby, as you only know me to be a great dad. You know me as thefather who always plays baseball and basketball with you (holding my arms ina circle for the basket; by the way, please stop using my face as thebackboard). You know me as the father who constantly takes you swimming(while you and your friends climb on me in the pool as we play toll bridge,Toy Story, and surfing). You know me as the father who colors with you. whobakes brownies and cupcakes with you. who makes the lemonade for yourlemonade stand. who reads books to you. who teaches you how to ride yourbike without training wheels. who loves you. Sweetheart, when I followed the process that the government requires to getdivorced from your mom, it was never my expectation that, as a result, theywould also keep me from you. But, as I learned, when fathers and mothersdivorce, fathers are removed from their children's lives (almost always<http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/mvsr/supp/mv43_09s.pdf> ). Because the judgetook you away from me (and me away from you), I filed documents in<http://www.loveisearned.com/html/divorce%20-%20appeals.htm> the Illinoisappellate court asking them to remove their guns that are keeping me fromyou and to let me back into your life. That's effectively what these briefsare: documents describing why no one should ever be able to take a childaway from a parent who has never hurt her. Your mom and her attorneys want me to be involved in your life onlyminimally. They wrote a document (called an appellee brief) that basicallysaid why I shouldn't be allowed to see you. (What did they say daddy?)You're so curious! Here are a few examples: - "The Lovetts proved in their protracted pretrial litigation that theywere incapable of working together"; (But daddy, isn't that why you andmommy got divorced?)- "Determining custody by looking at what is in the child's best interestis not perfect";- Evil people that you or I don't know gave the "courts the discretion todecide where [children] would live and which parent would make decisions";- "The states can and pretty much always have imposed separate and specialrules for children of divorce." That last one really struck me hard. (Why daddy?) Well pumpkin, you'lleventually learn this in history class, but there used to be these evil laws(known as Jim Crow <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Crow> laws) that"imposed separate and special rules" for blacks (e.g., separate drinkingfountains, separate seating arrangements, separate schools). Many peoplesuffered tremendously when these laws were in place, just like you and Iboth suffer tremendously now because someone has "separate and specialrules" in place to keep me from you. It hit me hard because most people(even our friends and family) don't care that history is repeating itself.(Why don't our friends and family care daddy?) I understand why you'reconfused sunshine, so let me say it another way: though people might CLAIMthey care, they don't care enough to actually DO anything to help us. Theymuch prefer to ignore the pain and suffering you and I feel. I don't knowwhy they aren't willing to do anything about our pain and suffering(probably because nobody's destroying their relationship with their childrenyet). When you grow up, maybe you can ask them directly why they didn'thelp; I'm sorry sweetheart, but I just don't know. Anyway munchkin, in reply to your mom's attorneys' evil words about why thejudge is justified in keeping me from you, today I filed what's called areply <http://www.loveisearned.com/html/appellate%20reply%20brief.htm>brief. However, I don't want you to get your hopes up. You see, theappellate judges who are going to read my words (if they even read them atall) are not interested in removing their guns from my head. (Why daddy?)Because sweetheart, if they take their guns away from me, they are going tohave to take their guns away from every other good father who has beenremoved from their children's lives. If they do that, there are a lot ofpeople (like your mom's attorneys and the state) who are going to lose anIMMENSE amount of money that they are stealing. And crooks don't like tolose money that they worked so hard to steal. (Daddy, they can have themoney I made from my lemonade stand.) Unfortunately sunshine, they wantmuch more money than that. (Daddy, can we do another lemonade stand so Ican make you more money?) Hopefully, in a few months, I'll learn when I can explain to them verballywhat I said in my briefs (this is called oral argument). However, I don'texpect to file my next appeal with the Illinois supreme court for at least 9- 12 months. You see, not only do they not care that I'm losing precioustime with you that you and I will never be able to get back or make-up, butthey also want to make this as painful as possible on me. (Why daddy?)Because pumpkin, if they do that, they think I will quit asking to be anequal part of your life. After all, they've used these tactics for manyyears against other fathers, and they've been very successful as there'snever been a father in the state of Illinois that has done what I'm doing(especially without any legal training). (I love you daddy.) Ilove you too sweetheart. You see, almost all fathers eventually give up,thinking that they can't slay this beast that keeps them from theirchildren. (Daddy, you can use the magic sword from Sleeping Beauty.) Don'tworry munchkin, even though there is no magic sword that I can use, I won'tgive up on you. I will never stop fighting to be with you. (Daddy, pleasedon't leave me.) Dearest Samantha, I intend to earn your love and the love I feel for you. Iintend to be the best father you could ever have. After all, being yourfather is the life-long job I chose over 6 years ago after planning it formost of my life. I won't let you down sunshine. But, I don't ask you totake my word for it - I intend to prove it to you. (Why daddy?) Because that's what good fathers do. Love always, Daddy There is no such thing as visitation between a parent and his child.

Univ. Berkeley just announced the discovery of the heaviest element

Univ. Berkeley just announced the discovery of the heaviest element yet known to science.

The new element has been named "Governmentium".

Governmentium has one neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons, and 224 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.

These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons.

When catalyzed with money, Governmentium becomes Administratium, an element which radiates just as much energy, since it has half as many peons, but twice as many morons.

Since Governmentium has no electrons, it is inert.

It can be detected, however, as it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact. A reaction that normally takes one minute or less will require a week or more if contaminated by any Governmentium.

The half-life of Governmentium is 4 years. It does not, however, decay, but instead undergoes a reorganization in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutron exchange places. In fact, Governmentium's mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganization will cause more morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes.

The characteristic of moron-promotion leads some scientists to believe that Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a certain quantity in concentration.

This hypothetical quantity is called "Critical Morass".

REFORM FAMILY LAW NOW!!
Make "Presumption of Shared-Parenting" THE LAW OF THE LAND!!

The "Best Interest of our Children" DEMANDS IT!!

The law abiding and wholly-fit-to parent Parents DEMAND IT!!

The Peace, Tranquility and Security of this Nation DEMANDS IT!!
==================

"The interest of the parents in the care, custody, and control of their children - - is perhaps the oldest of the fundamental liberty interests recognized by this Court." U.S. Supreme Court, 2000 "

Although the dispute is symbolized by a 'versus' which signifies two adverse parties at opposite poles of a line, there is in fact a third party whose interests and rights make of the line a triangle.
That person, the child who is not an official party to the lawsuit but whose well-being is in the eye of the controversy, has a right to shared parenting when both are equally suited to provide it. Inherent in the express public policy is a recognition of the child's right to equal access and opportunity with both parents, the right to be guided and nurtured by both parents, the right to have major decisions made by the application of both parents' wisdom, judgement and experience.

The child does not forfeit these rights when the parents divorce." Judge Dorothy T. Beasley, Georgia Court of Appeals, "In the Interest of A.R.B., a Child," July 2, 1993

"There is no system ever devised by mankind that is guaranteed to rip husband and wife or father, mother and child apart so bitterly than our present Family Court System."

Judge Brian Lindsay Retired Supreme Court Judge, New York."There is something bad happening to our children in family courts today that is causing them more harm than drugs, more harm than crime and even more harm than child molestation." Judge Watson L. White Superior Court Judge, Cobb County Georgia.

INNOCENCE WAS LOST

INNOCENCE WAS LOST

I SAT DOWN ONE DAY AND REFLECTED,
THAT LIFE HAS CHANGED SO MUCH IT MUST BE DEFLECTED.

I HAVE TO OR I WILL GO INSANE,
MY HEART ACHES AND I AM IN PAIN.

MARCH 24, 2005 OUR WORLDS CHANGED FOREVER
AND THE INNOCENCE WAS LOST,
YOU TWO CHILDREN LEFT MY WORLD
AND IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.
VISITING YOU IS NOT THE SAME,
WE CAN’T WALK IN MALLS OR JUST PLAY A GAME,
WE CAN’T HANG OUT AT THE DOLLAR STORE
OR A FAVOURITE PARK,
MY WHOLE WORLD WITHOUT YOU
IT SEEMS I AM IN THE DARK.
I WANDER AROUND THIS HOUSE AND PONDER,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING,
ARE YOU SAFE,
DID YOU REMEMBER ME TODAY?

JUST RAMBLING THOUGHTS THAT ARE ALWAYS
ON MY MIND,

QUESTIONS ABOUND
AND I ALWAYS THINK,
WHERE YOU ARE,
ARE THEY KIND?

I DIDN’T DO ANYTHING WRONG,
YET I AM BEING PUNISHED
BY BEING AWAY FROM YOU SO LONG.

MY NIGHTS WHEN I SLEEP ARE AWAKENED
BY NIGHTMARES OF TEARS AND SADNESS,

YOU ARE IN MY DREAMS,
MY DAYDREAMS AND MY MADNESS.

THE COLOR OF YOUR HAIR,
BLOND AND LONG,
YOUR INNOCENCELOST,
AND THE INJURIES INFLICTED UPON YOU
BY THAT HOME,

THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO
AS YOU ARE NOT WITH ME
I AM ALONE.

THE COLOR OF YOUR HAIR
DIRTY BLONDE AND SCRAGLY,
THERE IS PAIN IN YOUR HEART
AND IN YOUR WORDS,

WHY DID THEY DO THIS TO OUR FAMILY
INNOCENCE WAS LOST IN THE MADNESS OF SOCIETY?

YOU ARE TO OLD FOR YOUR BOOTS,
YOU SHOULDN’T BE IN THIS SITUATION
PLEASE REMEMBER WE ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT

ALL THESE COMPLICATIONS!

UNTIL WE ARE ALL TOETHER
PLEASE REMEMBER
THE INNOCENCE LOST WILL RETURN

IF NOT IN REALITY
THEN IN OUR DREAMS OF THE PAST.

WHEN WE ARE RE-UNITED
WE WILL BE A FAMILY AGAIN.
AND WHEN THAT DAY COMES
IT WILL BE A NEW BEGINNING,

WITH NO PAIN.
JUST LAUGHTER
AND TEARS OF JOY AND HAPPINESS
AND WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER

THAT DAY OUR INNOCENCE WAS LOST.
