0:03 [Music] 0:07 so let's go into the child must have 0:10 only one home again there's no evidence 0:14 showing that the courts have proven that 0:18 this is indeed the case 0:19 harm that comes from a child from 0:21 divorce is not the kind of harm that 0:24 comes from divorce is not the kind of 0:26 harm the courts can protect children 0:28 from in fact when they try to protect 0:31 children from harm that the Constitution 0:33 doesn't allow they usually end up doing 0:35 more damage and the federal courts have 0:38 talked about this they have talked about 0:40 this in terms of specific child abuse 0:42 cases or they say even in the most 0:44 serious and most heinous cases of 0:46 alleged child abuse they still must 0:48 balance the rights of the child in terms 0:50 of being protected from child abuse with 0:53 them with the rights of the child to 0:55 have association with their family and 0:58 to live with their family and be 0:59 involved with their family on the daily 1:00 basis because if you go overboard and 1:03 you protect the child that's not really 1:05 in danger 1:05 you're hurting from that child hurting 1:07 their relationships and their foundation 1:09 right so there's always a balance here 1:12 in the federal courts recognize you have 1:13 to look at both sides the state courts 1:16 ignore something they want to protect as 1:20 they say the child but what you see 1:22 they're really doing is protecting 1:24 themselves because they don't want to be 1:26 the judge who didn't go to the extra 1:27 mile when they should have and have 1:29 something happened to the child that 1:31 they get blamed for yeah they don't want 1:35 to be the judge that you see on the news 1:37 where you see people saying look they 1:39 complained about all these things about 1:40 the other parent and now the child is 1:42 dead or you know they don't want to be 1:45 that judge so they think that if they're 1:47 overly cautious they'll be okay no bad 1:52 things will happen but by the way 1:54 sometimes that sense of parent over the 1:57 edge too doesn't when on these cuts to 1:59 about a year or two ago or the child was 2:01 actually killed by one of the parents of 2:02 supervised visits and they wind up 2:04 causing way more harm than they would 2:06 cause otherwise you cannot protect 2:08 everybody from everything that's why we 2:10 have rules that's why we have 2:12 fundamental rights 2:13 that's why we have proper procedures to 2:15 protect these fundamental rights there 2:17 is always going to be error but what we 2:20 cannot do is allow little small kings 2:24 who are these judges to just make random 2:26 arbitrary decisions they're ultimately 2:28 only protecting themselves not 2:30 protecting the children are the families 2:32 yeah we have to have a basic rules 2:35 procedural rules that apply equally to 2:37 everybody's on and to protect as much as 2:41 possible all of the rights involved and 2:44 that's what the Constitution provides 2:45 but these state judges are ignoring we 2:49 find ways and we help you force them to 2:51 all the rules thank you for watching and 2:55 if you found this video valuable please 2:57 subscribe to the YouTube channel and 2:58 then go on to the next video about 3:00 family court myths 3:10 thank you for watching and if you found 3:12 this video valuable please subscribe to 3:15 the YouTube channel and then go on to 3:17 the next video about family court myths
