We are Defend the Children. Legally that is our
name. All of us have the legal right to it and also have the consent of each other to use it.
We are all Americans. . We are mothers and fathers, grandmothers and a grandfather, we are aunts and
uncles, foster parents and adoptive parents. We are concerned citizens.
We are people
who care about justice, the children, the protective parents and our country. We continue searching, we continue to try to
get the message outabout the child abuse atrocities and the difficulties good parents are facing. We are Defend the
Children. Please become one of us.
We have personal knowledge of the injustices going on in the courthouses
across America and we joined together to try to make a difference.
We decided that
it was very important to let the public know what is happening. We found so many people had no knowledge of what is
going on in their own back yards. We decided the internet would reach a vast amount of people, therefore,
we began a long journey researching and posting information.
We questioned
why so many loving and caring parents were losing their children to abusive spouses. We heard the terms PAS, parental
alienation syndrome and false alegations being used by many accused of abuse. Research showed us what we knew
but needed to be sure we were right. PAS is not recognized by the APA and many state do not allow it as evidence.
(We have all this listed separately) and we also confirmed that false allegations in reality are not by a parent accusing
the other of abuse but of the accused actually making false claims about the reporter. It is often their only defense,
a false defense but their only hope===blame someone else. It works--it works all too well. No innocent person
needs lie).
The protective parent has not been charged with a crime and can not defend him or herself against
the charge of making false allegations and yet the court punishes the protective parent as if the protective parent is an
unfit parent.
It is bad enough that a good
protective parent is yelled at and sanctioned unjustly in court but it is true travesty of justice when that miscarry
forces children to live with the parent the child reported molested the child. This is reality.
We searched and continue to search laws and each state for news article about children being
harmed. Many of the children who were hurt and even murdered had previously been reported to the child protection service
as possibly an abused child, some children were harmed in foster homes. The system has failed those children
and we know more will most likely be harmed. Knowing that, we still work for a different future. As individuals
we can do little so we grouped together and formed Defend the Children, Inc. We are a licensed non profit.
We are child advocates. We are protective parent advocates.
