How Family Courts Are Ignoring the Trauma They Create: Every Denied Parent Is an Extra ACE Score for a Child

Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) increase with such estrangement, leading to long-term emotional and physical issues. Courts frequently fail to protect children from these harmful dynamics, exacerbating trauma instead of addressing it.

Op-Ed: The Hypocrisy of Family Law — Why Family Court Should Be Abolished

They call it family law, but the only thing it truly governs is separation, silence, and suffering. This is not justice — it’s bureaucracy weaponized against love.

Certainly not the children. Not the parents. Only the lawyers, the evaluators, the GALs, and the judges padding their pensions.
