📉 Family Court injustice across nation Understanding the Family Court & How the System Profits from Broken Homes

🏛️ The Family Court Isn’t Broken — It’s Working Exactly as Designed

Family Court injustice across the nation has most people believing the family court system exists to protect children. But if you look closely, you’ll find something far more dangerous:➡️ A multi-billion-dollar industry fueled by federal funding, not child safety. ➡ A pipeline that profits when families are separated, not supported.➡️ A machine that rewards removal, not reunification.

This is the Family Court Trap, and it’s hidden in plain sight.

💰 Family Court injustice across the nation. The Federal Incentive System: Title IV-E & Title IV-D

Let’s break down how the government funds and fuels family separation:

🔹 Title IV-E – Foster Care and Adoption Assistance

This part of the Social Security Act provides billions in federal dollars to states for every child placed in foster care or adopted out of state custody.

✅ States receive reimbursement for:

• Foster care costs

• Administrative and training expenses

• Adoption bonuses when a child is permanently removed

🚨 Key problem: The more children a state removes — the more funding it receives.

🔹 Title IV-D – Child Support Enforcement

Title IV-D is supposed to help custodial parents collect child support. But in reality, it creates financial pressure on courts to assign custody based on potential child support income, not best interest.

💸 Every dollar in support collected through Title IV-D earns matching federal funds.

🚨 This incentivizes:

• Denial of equal custody (more support = more $$)

• Favoring the non-custodial parent who can pay

• Penalizing poor or marginalized parents

🧩 How It Plays Out in Real Life

In my own case:

• False allegations were used to remove my child

• DSS placed my son in the hands of strangers

• The court granted them custody without evidence or trial

• And while I fought to get him back, they profited

➡️ My son became a statistical data point — a source of funding, not a child in need.

And I’m not alone. Thousands of parents across the U.S. are experiencing the same pattern:Remove first. Investigate later. Reunify never.

📊 Show Me the Money: Bonus Structure Example

States can earn:

• $4,000–$8,000 per child adopted from foster care

• Matching funds for every month a child remains in foster care

• Reimbursement of court and administrative costs

Incentives like these mean children become financial commodities — and poor families, especially Black and Indigenous ones, are targeted the most.

⚖️ What Needs to Change

• Remove financial incentives for permanent removal

• Increase support for in-home services and reunification

• Require due process before removal

• Make courts transparent and accountable

🛑 Final Thoughts

They call it protection.But it’s a business.And business is booming.

The more we expose the money trail, the more we reveal the truth:This is not about safety. It’s about revenue.
