Has the American Family Court System Become Totalitarian?
From MRA author Stephen Baskerville…
A review of Taken Into Custody has just been published by the economist Jennifer Roback-Morse in the prestigious scholarly journal, The Family in America: http://www.familyinamerica.org/roback.php.
She reviewed it together with Alec Baldwin’s book on his divorce ordeal, A Promise to Ourselves , so it is sure to get attention. An excerpt is below.
Taken Into Custody is very high on the Amazon rankings right now. with 60 reviews, almost all 5 starts. This should help boost it higher, and I would be grateful for any help with publicity.
The Family in America has been expanded into a full-length journal and contains other valuable articles on the family. In fact, I have an article due out in the next issue.
IN 2007, THE MEDIA HAD A FEEDING FRENZY around a voice-mail message actor Alec Baldwin left his daughter. He screamed at her for not answering her phone. The public was shocked: many assumed that he was yet another self-absorbed celebrity, with neither control over himself nor regard for his daughter. But in fact, Baldwin had been caught in the web of the totalitarian nightmare known as the American family court system. His book, A Promise to Ourselves, tells his particular story, while Stephen Baskerville’s book, Taken Into Custody, presents the general problem of which Baldwin’s story is a particular case.

Stumble It!
I wonder if Alec Baldwin realizes that he supports the political force that fuels and propogates the very family court system that was responsible for his nightmare?
Regardless, he is a father and a human beings with rights that should not be undermined regardless of his political leanings.
Yes, and it has been this way for awhile now and that is why we need reform quite desperately. Non custodial parents are being driven to the point of desperation and suicide. This needs to STOP it cannot go on like this.
I invite you to please sign the petition for child support reform, if not for yourself please do it for your friends,family and the future of your children.
