Does the State sponsor child abuse?

[arfarfa]

A long and difficult article to read, with the comments at the bottom leading to an eventually uneasy feeling of being unsure about what the truth is.

All I believe is:

-men who abuse women make me sick
-women who abuse men make me sick
-anybody who abuses the legal system is actually abusing their own children
-anybody, outside of the two people involved, who professes to know what 'the truth' is, in relation to allegations/false allegations, is lying.

I cant go into any detail, but yes the state does.

awful

this is so very sad.

Heartbreaking

The state also pays local authorities per child taken into care and then adopted. Often these children are from stable loving homes and social work can made unsubstansiated allegations to whisk the child away,

The other nasty trend is the over sexualisation of young kids at school and through media, this is really going on, and it needs to be monitored. The state actively want kids pregnant in teens, living in rented accomodation and attatched to state services for life, it gives them life long labour votors. Or at least it did.

Time to dismantle the over reaching arm of the state.

One of the main problems is that there is a deep contradiction at the very heart of the family law system.
Ostensibly, it is primarily focused (supposedly) upon the well being and emotional needs of any children involved. Unfortunately, it quickly changes to being all about the separating parents, and in particular the 'resident' parent. Compulsory, fast-track, mediation is essential. This can be done by different solicitors in different cities, with a report to the court by an adjudicator giving a summary of the willingness or intransigence of the parties involved.
Time to put the children first.

hard to know the truth in each case obviously.

but the whole 'status quo' thing is accurate. DH is a much better parent to his 3 DCs than his ex will ever be, but she span a load of lies when he went for custody (years before we met) and of course she won custody. it's heartbreaking for him, they're not abused/neglected or anything drastic, but they would be much better off with him/us. in particular with their health/education.
