When the regular court officials happen across this website today, I hope they can stomach to press the play button and sit through the whole video so they can get a glimpse of the life that my children are missing out on because of their integral part in using children and feuds to fund their judicial bureaucracy. My case is just one of many where children are being deprived of a fit, willing, and caring parent. Children deserve both sides of their family tree. I know right from wrong, why don't our judges and their employees?
You may remember recently that Brian Downs and myself both spoke to the Flint City Council asking support for Michigan House Bill 4564, Michigan's presumption of equal custody bill. I ventured back in July to speak further to the Flint City Council. See below the presentation that I provided again to the Flint City Council. Also, Council Member Jackie Foster Poplar spoke in support of the bill and indicated that she issued a letter to Lansing about supporting House Bill 4564. She also told her side of the story in the below video which I encourage all of you to view. You can also send letters/emails of support directly to Jackie Poplar at jpoplar@cityofflint.com thanking her for supporting this critical issue.
Observe this video with the following philosophy in mind. A helpless family with their child walking through life being attacked by the family court system (the lions) with child psychologists, lawyers, and social workers trying to get their piece of the pie (the crocodile) and what happens when the calvary returns (the Family Preservation Festival 2008)!!! Now do you see the similarities between nature and the family court system? Watch the movie all the way through and see the horrible truth of what happens to a child, but bear in mind that some good can come out of it when the reinforcements arrive. Join the reinforcements in Washington D.C. to fight the family court system and get our children back. Check out http://www.dcfestival2008.org for more information about the festival on August 15 & 16, 2008.
The Studio Guys at Studio 1714 are at it again with another excellent piece on Equal Parenting, Friend of the Court Abuse of Power, and Representative Brenda Clack holding up Michigan House bill 4564!
"Originally only a program to serve the needy has evolved into a program to serve the greedy," states Lary Holland. He further states that, "The Judges and Friend of the Court are the gatekeepers to debtors' prison in Michigan."
John Wilson, "How can they pay if they are in jail?"
"Parenting is a protected liberty, the friend of the court routinely takes away a significant amount of custody from a fit, willing, and caring parent and assign all the benefit nearly to one parent and most the burden, including financial burden, to the other parent," Holland elaborates.
"It's a double whammi", states Steve Brewer.
"It's like a snowball [effect]," further states John Wilson.
Brenda Clack is holding up Michigan House Bill 4564, Michigan's Presumption of Equal Custody Bill which raises the standards to keep both fit, willing, and competent parents in children's lives.
Lary Holland discusses the Critical Issues with Studio 1714, located in the heart of Flint's beautiful East Side.
Lary Holland discusses critical issues surrounding Equal Parenting, House Bill 4564 (HB4564), and Why Equal Custody hasn't happened yet with Studio 1714's Flint Talk / Flint Video Crew. Representative Brenda Clack is currently holding House Bill 4564 hostage, which will be discussed in upcoming shows. View the first of several discussions that are going to be released over the next several weeks regarding the Critical Issues surrounding the State of Michigan's policies over the family.
"The more you learn about it the more you hate your State," Steve Brewer, co-host of Studio 1714's Show from the heart of Flint's beautiful East Side.
"What people don't understand is the Government doesn't create anything, doesn't create finances, it just takes them from someone else... to continue what they are doing is going to have much more of a human tragedy behind it." John Wilson, co-host.
It's the silence and indifference of the good people, led only by the vitriolic actions of our governments, that are harming our children. Join with me to help change what is happening to our nation's children. Let's reign in free for all welfare programs like Title IV-D and help re-establish that all people are created equally.

Rally for Equal Parenting on August 18, 2007.

Carol Rhodes, a former Friend of the Court Enforcement Officer, speaks out and tells the the participants at the Barry County Equal Parenting Symposium that she was instructed to essentially lie to mothers and fathers while providing services to the public. See an excerpt of her excellent speech that she delivered below. The Barry County Equal Parenting Symposium provided educational services to the public about the status of Michigan's Equal Parenting Bill, House Bill 4564.
While Kent County Friend of the Court employees and Kent County Judges are busy searching on the Internet to find more information about Lary Holland, all they had to do was ask...they too could have been invited right in their own backyard to participate in the Barry County Equal Parenting Symposium.
Lary Holland presented at the Barry County Equal Parenting Symposium about some of the reasons there are obstructions to state endorsed Equal Parenting. The reason is simple, "the State doesn't make any money when people are getting along." Federal funding stands in the way of Michigan's House Bill 4564 and this clip explains how. Simply put the Friend of the Court system in Michigan is paid to "break apart families."
