I have lost custody. I have not seen my daughter in four years, since June of 2018. I am terrified of going back to court, because of what will set her father off. We will always be in danger as long as he walks free. I believe all of this in Anne-Christines case. This is what happens to mothers across the world. No wonder children grow up, messed up. You cannot hide this from kids, especially when they lose contact with their mommy's who are their primary caregivers. My daughter and are were very bonded and she was afraid of her father, even at the age of one. It broke my heart to force her to see him. I was sending her the message to give up her innate ability to run away from danger, because family court said to. A positive change is definitely needed, YESTERDAY. No more training. Judges need to be held accountable for their decisions, no more immunity and independent public hearings on discipline for judges. They are people too and need to be treated as such. They are not above us and they do not know our family dynamics to make these decisions and destroy our lives. They need to be held accountable when they ignore facts, documented proof, and laws. The toll this is taking on Anne-Christines mom, Stephanie, is appalling too. This little boy witnessing his mommy murdered is so despicable. For this grandfather to try and adopt this boy, says a lot about him as well. Abusers family's ALWAYS stand by these monsters, same thing happened with us. They protect and enable their immediate family member the ability to continue their abusive ways. I have been fighting to get laws changed and to get to the root that judges are the problem for women and children. My thoughts are with Stephanie to get her grandson. My thoughts are with the child who will have a difficult road ahead, because of his father. 🙏 🫂
In Ft Worth, TX, I know of a woman lost custody of her 6 and 15 yr old to the abusive father whose criminal record, violation of daughter was on record with Child Protection. The 15 yr old son tried to kill the father. Family court-same story everywhere. Ignore children’s welfare to protect abusive husbands and dads. It’s an unspoken rule that if a woman even mentions abuse, she will lose. Tsunami backlash to women’s rights.
I'm going through something like this idk what to do I have a lawyer but I can't pay for him and so I get left with public defenders who play with our lives
This is one of the most disturbing cases I have ever read about. I realize that it's never easy making a judgement for custodial rights when young children are involved. I can't even begin to comprehend what the judge in this case was thinking or in what frame of mind she must have had. This is one of the most irresponsible and for lack of better words an unforgivable discusting abuse of power obviously from a woman who had no conscience and a profound lack of concern, empathy and absolutely cares nothing for a child's safety or well being. This is failure of our justice system at its finest.
I quit my government job. Gave up pension, benefits and moved my daughter and her children to another province. My daughter ex sexually assaulted her, trial this year. He tried co trolling her, he hit her, My now 8 and 14 yr old came forward with sexual assault. There is an investigation. My 14yr old is now on antidepressant and seeing a therapist. My daughter has full custody but they still allowed him supervised over night access. We left province. Now my daughter has been found guilty of contempt of court. She gets sentenced in May.
This is absolutely terrifying, appalling and extremely sad. I am deeply empathetic to injustice against innocent children, and every story like this makes me cry and hopeless for the future. This needs to end. No matter what women do or don't do, it's never enough to protect themselves or their children. The world we live in completely disregards innocent lives in the face of abuse. Family court is evil and needs to be rid of. Who gave them the power over our children??
Superb article! PLEASE try to get other media & organizations to publish similar article & state that ALL states must pass enforceable Family Court reform SOON. You are "dead on" that training will not be sufficient to change the minds of extreme paternalists. In 2 cases I've been asked to court watch for (later barred, but we talk & email...), even a survey of high school students would say the judges' decisions were crazy, if not outright criminal! Brief overviews. Case 1- police removed 2 illegal ghost guns from father, gave mother order of protection from him. When he started bullying again when she tried returning home, she fled with kids to shelter, he filed for divorce & called different police & accused her of kidnapping. Female judge ordered her to court next day to hand over kids to father or go to jail. He got custody & she supervised visits. Required supervisor reports to new male judge clearly indicated murder threats & child abuse which he ignored (still). ETC.. Case 2- CPS told mother if she didn't get protective order vs father, they'd put kids in foster care since kids had been complaining at school re abusive father. Father filed for divorce when protective order issued, but male judge removed protective order, gave him custody & totally barred, on threat of jail, mother from contact (now ~9mo.) with kids because he accused her of being mentally unfit (never claimed before & is common tactic, though rare to bar even supervised visits & calling).

My heart goes out to all the dear nurturing mothers who have lost their precious little ones to abusive fathers! Our daughter is one of these mothers! I never knew about the unjust corrupt schemes of family court judges, attorneys, amicus attorneys, tainted juries, and even CPS who all stick together in favor of these vile dads!
Our situation ended horribly in 2014 after 18 months of torture, and our sweet grandchildren enduring sexual abuse from their father even though their outcries were reported to CPS! NOTHING was done! Two doctors and a sane nurse all diagnosed child sexual abuse … still nothing was done!
But after the ruling where the dad now has primary custody, I told our daughter to try to make the best of things, and make each moment with her kids memorable, because as evil and narcissistic as the dad is, I absolutely believe that if our daughter would have won custody back in 2014, either she would not be here today or her children would not be here! That is just how far and dangerous that monster (dad) would go to keep from paying one more cent for child support!
