The court has actively worked against the most vulnerable ones and placed them at risk.
Imagine facing a divorce so tumultuous that your children become pawns in a legal game. In this eye-opening episode of 'The Never Give Up Show!', Bailey Smith sits down with Christy and Rachel, two mothers from Florida who have lived through such harrowing experiences. Both women are active members of Families Against Court Travesties (FACTS) and the Florida Protective Parents Association, fighting tirelessly for the safety of their children amidst a broken judicial system.
Rachel shares her story of enduring abuse from her ex-husband and the ongoing trauma her young son faces during his 50/50 time-sharing arrangement. Despite clear signs of child abuse, the court has failed to protect her little boy. Christy’s tale is equally heart-wrenching. She doesn't even get 50% time with her children, and despite her 15-year-old son's testimony and proof of abuse, the court continues to overlook their safety.
Throughout the episode, Christy and Rachel recount the systemic failures they've encountered—being denied access to their own finances, facing false accusations of bad parenting, and watching helplessly as their children suffer. They emphasize the urgent need for legislative change and the importance of support networks like FACTS. Bailey Smith guides this candid conversation with empathy and determination, highlighting the relentless efforts of these mothers to protect their children and advocate for better legal protections.
The episode serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing battle many parents face and the critical need for systemic reform to prioritize child safety. Tune in to hear these powerful stories and join the movement for change. Whether you're directly affected or simply want to support a crucial cause, this episode offers both insight and hope.
