Listening to this podcast was extremely frustrating. The statistics used were not accurate. 1 in 7 men is playing into the mysoginistic narrative that men’s rights activists would like women to believe; but do nothing for healing communities plagued by domestic violence issues. One would think that in a state as populated as Maryland they would be leading the country in interventions for victims. Instead what seems to be happening is allowing abusers to disguise themselves as victims and perfect DARVO techniques. Which further entrenches their abilities to take our children in family court. You are not helping women in court. Listening to the male speaker from Family Justice League—no wonder there’s so many survivors from Maryland reaching out for help nationally. Your system is failing. Failing it’s women. Failing it’s children.
