Family Court – Nuke And Pave

The Family Court system in America is a disaster area. My personal experience has been on the Family Court battlefield in the State of Maryland, but I know Maryland is not alone in its level of chaos. It is certainly not alone in the number of children who are abused and die as a result…

Are You A Deadbeat Enabler?

In last week’s post, I discussed maternal instincts and how this very instinct can work to psychologically torture a woman in Family Court. This week, I want to take you back to basic relationship dynamics before a woman finds herself in the nightmare of Family Court. While many women are fortunate enough to never end…

Focusing On Happiness In The Midst Of Chaos

Mothers have a primal urge to protect their children. It’s part of our DNA and unless your maternal instinct isn’t working properly, it is impossible to turn it off. The first time I walked into my attorney’s office, I have no doubt in my mind that all the attorneys in that office believed I was…

In Loving Memory of Prince

Today, my son Prince would have been two years old…had he survived. I have posted a memorial video for Prince on YouTube and ask that everyone share this video liberally (Link provided below). While many people who had a part in what happened to my son would likely rather forget about what happened, and certainly…

Waiting Out The Storm

Since the day I left Luc, I have been fighting for survival – physical and emotional survival. Sadly, my son didn’t survive the fight. I was not able to protect him no matter how much time, money, and emotional energy I spent. These past two years have been a nightmare to live through. For…

Monkey In An Orange Jumpsuit

It’s been a while since I have spoken directly about what is happening in the State’s case against Luc. Anyone who follows my blog is aware that since the murder of my son, I have spent nearly all of my waking hours (when not in my full-time job trying to stay afloat financially) fighting for justice.…

The Incredibly Disgusting Double Standard

It is no secret how I feel about the state of women in America (and all over the world). I have often referred to the fact that it appears as though the courts have waged a war on Motherhood. In recent news, it appears as though the justice system has intentionally turned a blind eye…

Single Mama – My Badge of Honor

I distinctly remember being 16 years old and walking through the mall with my friends. My eye was suddenly drawn to a teenage boy (who happened to be black) with his pants sagging nearly to his knees. He had on a poorly fitting belt and his boxers were completely showing. He walked around as if…

Child Soldiers

On March 24, 2013, a Washington Post Editorial shed light on the ugly realities of Child Abuse in our country. According to the Washington Post, experts estimate that more than 2,000 children die from abuse and neglect each year, with nearly 82 percent of victims being under the age of 4. The Post then goes on to…

Guest Post: The Most Important Job

This week’s post comes from a good friend of mine, and famous Daddy blogger, Doyin at Daddy Doin’ Work. I asked Doyin to share what being a father means to him and how he feels when he hears about all the terrible deadbeat Dads out there. In the past two years, I have seen the worst when it…
