Family Courts are not what they seem to be. Unbound by law and unbeholden to transparency, an epidemic of extreme injustice, serious harm, and judicial misconduct is occurring through this hidden Court system. The reason? In the United States, sending children to the wrong parent brings in billions in revenue. Unfortunately, the wrong parent is too often their tormentor, rapist, and murderer.
The situation is now so serious and so widespread that it is affecting democracy. Recently, a United Nations Special Rapporteur wrote a report to the Human Rights Council. All these topics were discussed at a roundtable at 12 noon ET / 5 pm London Time on Sunday, August 27, 2023.
Dr. Bandy X. Lee, one of the country’s most distinguished forensic psychiatrists, who taught for 17 years at the Yale School of Medicine and the Yale Law School, led a project group for the World Health Organization’s Violence Prevention Alliance, and helped to expose the violence and inhumanity in U.S. prisons, has now taken on the topic of Family Courts, informed by her own family’s exposure. Her interview and recent writings about this crisis include:

At the roundtable, hosted and moderated by Dr. Lee, we summarize the UN Special Rapporteur’s report and then hear from four mothers from the West and East Coasts of the U.S.A., Canada, and the U.K., who bravely share their firsthand accounts.
I am a family court & abuse advocate in the UK. I help victims & attend court regularly with them, also doing statements & applications. I can assure everyone that this IS happening. I currently have several cases just like the ones on this video right now. Things have not improved in the 5 years since I was in court for my own children
Thank you Dr. Lee. Once again providing an important public service.
Go after the mischaracterizing professionals through the licensing boards after documenting your appeals to them directly.
I think that families operate the same way governments do: example; Dictatorship family, Democracy family. etc etc
As a mother of abducted children by the father, I feel the Embassies contribute to this problem by giving father’s a right to privacy after an abduction.
In many cases, violence is perpetuated by the inability of young offspring to even be able to report its occurrence.
(as illustration the impatient violence of a grandfather, beating me for NO reason other than his attention to an entering child of 4 years old or less, while whatever he was working on in his garage, constitutes my first coherent memory in life. I knew he was accusing me of something i was not even yet capable of doing.
I NEVER AGAIN went into his presence, unless behind my older brother, and never spoke coherently with adult males until or unless they were acting aggressively, well into adulthood.
Just as the unfortunate mother narrating said, I slept with hammers and screwdrivers under my pillow when my abusive father was at home, until mid-teenage, when he was less often present.
He had NEVER spoken to me unless berating, or threatening. As a small 13 year old, i was, with my brother, kicked out of the home on a Christmas eve, while my mother happened to be gone. There was NEVER any recourse to adult abuse so constant that at age 31, i first saw a man my age playing and acting friendly with his father. This did not compute in my brain, and i realized that what i saw could NOT be happening, yet was occurring in front of my senses.
Such abuse may not be directly due to some small percentage of highly aberrant adult males, as in my father's case he was an alcoholic, whom i avoided completely for years, by having loosened bedroom window to that i could enter, never coming home before midnight, as he had to be asleep before i would do so.
I heard incredible loud verbal fighting in the kitchen during those years, of 10 -11 until 15, strangely always seeming to be about me, a middle child. No one understood that my only companion and authority was my brother, one year older with whom i tagged along, never even having a sense of self, until he shed me - and this was not unreasonable, as a child needs their own exploration in autonomy, and he should not have been my caretaker and teacher.
It was religion, the other abuse, that enabled the father and grandfather to perpetrate abuse. Religions do NOT report or police in ANY way, but are mere false delusional organizations to which mothers and others shunt their children, in order to avoid responsibility or care.
My mother having been a 16 year old bride, i also understand her naivete' and incompetence, though it was only later that i realized she lived a life of complete heartache, seeking solace with other women away from th e family - She had NO chance to learn or therapy, as religion and alcohol precludes all such community health.
. She DID move us away from our grandfather, who had been renowned for his poor temper in relation to his farm animals and at least me, in the days of my first memory.
The priests who i initially approached to ask for counsel, ALL, treated me extremely harshly, and by the time i was 12, i was throwing rocks into the sky in rage at the cruel fantasy "god" who would submit innocent children to such harm.
After calming i realized, even while forced into the falsehoods of dissociative religious education, that there could NOT be such a monster as this "god" as it was a figment of adult minds created in THEIR image, with THEIR biases, hatreds, intolerances, and vengeance. sanctifying the WORST in humans,
and lying, about not only their invention, but replacing community and love with justifications of abuse.
THOSE TWO extreme ills, religion and alcohol, remain the source of all lies, equivocations, abuse. While my cousin had been raped by a priest, and subsequently his life unravelled into teenage and prison, i had understood the more subtle signals of priests of whom I never met a single exception to self-righteous intolerance of children.
Even as an adult NO priest ever varied from presumption that a child was heir to al the evils which only adults in my experience, perpetrate. EVERY priest i have ever met, shares this sadistic trait.
Children are innocent, impulsive, but NOT vindictive until subject to incessant abuse. Then they are inculcated into the aberration of revenge, but not always - i only desire that such adults NOT be enabled by communities to abuse.
Penalties are necessary because the dogmatic and the alcoholic share the delusions and NEVER change, .
Thank you, Dr Lee. You are 1 of the most important voices of our time.
Thank you so much. I am pleased to have found this, it is very shocking what is going on! The only thing is, my children and I have suffered narcisisstic abuse and my Ex also executes alienating and manipulating behaviours on the children. This is very often also a scenario. This is why I believe there should not be a dismissal of PA but in every case a psychological assessment as depending on the situation a perpetrator can display alienating symptoms or wrongfully accuse of alienating.
It is why parents need jury trial rights in every state run “family” and juvenile dependency “CPS” court and not just in Texas
