Support the fundamental right of parents to direct the upbringing, education, and care of their children.

Children need parents.

We all know that. Parents positively impact a child’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Up until 2000, the Supreme Court consistently upheld parental rights.

The “primary role of the parents in the upbringing of their children is now established beyond debate as an enduring American tradition.” Wisconsin v. Yoder, 406 U.S. 205 (1972)

Parental rights are now unprotected.

In 2000, the U.S. Supreme Court reviewed the law in Troxel v. Granville, 530 U.S. 57 and came to a split decision that left no clear standard for future cases and has caused massive confusion in the courts regarding parental rights.

Now, sadly, the protection of parental rights is left up to individual judges, leaving the door open for abuse.

Did you know…

Children have been taken away from parents who have done nothing wrong.

There is a growing tendency to undermine parental rights and assume someone other than the parent knows best.

The ParentalRights.org family wishes you and your family all the light and joy, warmth and love of this holiday season, now and throughout the coming year. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

We need to take action now.

The Parental Rights Amendment to the Constitution will protect children by guarding a parent’s rights unless the parents have been proven inadequate. It will solidify in the courts a right Americans have long held dear: the right of parents to raise their children.

It states that: “The liberty of a parent to direct the upbringing, education, and care of their children is a fundamental right,” and that “Neither the United States nor any State shall infringe this right without demonstrating that its governmental interest...is of the highest order and not otherwise served.”

According to a poll by Zogby Polling in 2010, 93.6% of all Americans agree with this statement:

“In general, parents have the constitutional right to make decisions for their children without government interference unless there is proof of abuse or neglect.”

Let's make sure the parental rights we all hold dear are protected.

Parents are being refused access to their children's medical information.

Both the Family Educational Right to Privacy Act (FERPA) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) include ambiguities with a lot of room for interpretation – which means that to protect themselves, both states and private interests have interpreted them in ways that deny parents access to important information about their children.

Lawless Family Courts: Jailing people for debt is Unconstitutional - A form of Extortion from Bob Norton on Vimeo.
Many states are jailing people to extort money from their friends and families. This is literally extortion as civil courts are not allowed to use civil contempt to punish, nor jail people who do not have the money. Learn how to protect yourself from unlawful jail time with a few words.

Turner v. Rogers, the Court was asked if deadbeat dads who fail to pay child support have a right to counsel when facing incarceration.

Lawless Family Courts: Constitutional Law Requires Treating Everyone Equally - Judges Don't Care from Bob Norton on Vimeo.

Sexism is rampant in family court, though not always the determining factor. Money generation almost always overrides this law. After illegal termination of one parents rights the litigation is on and everything you own, and could earn for up to 24 years is too. Honoring the 14th Amendment would mean granting equal time and custody in any case where both parents are fit, but that would not generate billions in federal kickbacks for all 50 state judicial systems - and they are now addicted to this money flow. The best interest of children will never get in the way of paychecks for their mostly unneeded jobs.

Turner v. Rogers: What the Court Did and Didn’t Say | ACS:

By Rebekah Diller, deputy director of the Justice Program at the Brennan Center for Justice. This is a cross-post from the Brennan Center’s blog. Posted on June 21, 2011.

In a mixed result for the rights of indigent parents, the Supreme Court yesterday held that the year-long incarceration of a South Carolina man for failure to pay child support violated the Constitution because adequate safeguards had not been in place to ensure that his failure to pay was willful. However, the Court also ruled that parents facing jail time for failure to pay child support do not have a categorical right to a court-appointed defense attorney when the other parent is unrepresented.

The case, Turner v. Rogers, involved an appeal of an order finding Michael Turner in civil contempt because of his failure to pay child support. At the hearing, Mr. Turner had been unrepresented by counsel and had attempted to explain to the judge why he could not pay his debt. The judge did not make any finding as to Turner’s ability to pay the arrears and nonetheless ordered Turner to serve a year in prison.

Family Court Corruption and to Abolish Title IV-D Funding from States to have incentives to illegally "courtnap" children, CPS corruption, judicial corruption!!

Title IV_D funding has caused great grief to those families trying to get a "fair hearing" in family court. The Family Court Judges, attorney ad litems, psychologist benefit from Title IV-D funding. The funds are given to the states on collection of child support. There is no incentive to grant the "best parent" custody - but to examine which parent can pay child support. This is important as every dollar of child support collected is matched by Title IV-D funding. The funding going to the States are not used to enforce visitation rights of the non-custodial parent, but going into areas of the State that are not accounted for.

"So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home." (Tecumseh).

Tell Your Story

We always encourage all parents and extended family to share information about Family Court horrors, or Parental Alienation and its impact on you, your children and family, so that the ripple effect of sharing information and experiences create positive change for other people who are affected or who may be affected in the future.

Call yourself whatever you want (or nothing at all). Email addresses are strictly confidential, and providing one is optional (but will allow you to be notified of others’ responses and to dialogue immediately if you wish).

The Communications Decency Act exempts this blog’s author from any liability for what you say. Civility is the only constraint upon your speech.

Fathers have become undervalued, family structure has become disposable, children suffer without both parents but so often father is left out, seen as nonessential. Let's correct this by bringing attention to it! We're happy to populate the Internet with information that is helpful, supportive, and conducive to fostering father-child relationships, reducing or eliminating Parental Alienation, for the betterment of our children's psychological and emotional health, and for the future health of our families and societies.
