California Safe Child Coalition: Children Should Maintain a Relationship with Abusers

The California Safe Child Coalition Believes Children Should “Maintain a Relationship” with an Abusive Parent… Is this What the Mother’s Movement Stands For?

The point of this article is not debate the merits of supervised visitation but to point out the conflicting messages of some of the leaders in the Mother’s Movement; that, on one hand, say children should be protected from an abuser, even to remove all contact with that parent  and, on the other hand, say an abusing parent deserves a relationship with the child they have harmed—and this relationship should be fostered, and encouraged to grow in supervised visitation (which will lead to unsupervised visits, and likely the alleged abuser will gain custody). SO what does the Mother’s Movement really believe?

 Quote: “The California Safe Child Coalition works with national, state and local government agencies, private organizations and individuals to keep children safe.”

“We seek a massive culture shift in the California court system. We strive to endure that children remain safe in the custody of protective parents, while maintaining relationships with their abusing parents through court-ordered supervised visitation”. This includes parents who have sexually abused children.

 

WHO IS THE CALIFORNIA SAFE CHILD COALITION?

The California Safe Child Coalition is compromised of some of the largest organizations leading the Mother’s Movement today; many who have appeared at the Battered Mothers Custody Conference (BMCC).

THE CONTRADICTION: QUOTES FROM THOSE IN THE MOTHER’S MOVEMENT AGAINST SUPERVISED VISITATION BETWEEN A CHILD & AN ALLEGED ABUSER

These statements from advocates and mothers in the Mother’s Movement directly challenge California Safe Child Coalition’s statement that abusive parents deserve a relationship with the children they have abused, and that relationship should be fostered in supervised visitation.  Keep in mind, the purpose of supervised visitation is temporary, and almost always results in unsupervised visitation, and increased custody.

Many of these leaders/advocates/mothers believe that a child who has been abused will be at risk for further abuse if they continue to have a relationship with a parent who has harmed them in the past, and that placing a child in supervised visitation with an abuser is traumatic. Many of these voices come from mothers who have been through the family court system, have dealt with supervised visitation, and witnessed its failures.

So who is the California Safe Child Coalition fighting for, and why??

From Barry Goldstein: “We have seen repeatedly that courts create an urgency to restore normal visitation to fathers even in the face of serious safety risks…The(re is) disparity in how supervised visitation is handled between mothers and fathers…the courts that couldn’t wait to resume visitation with a dangerous father are willing to delay years before resuming normal visitation with a safe mother…”

And, “Instead of pressuring mothers to cooperate with their abusers they can be using their power and authority to require him to stop his abuse if he wants to have a relationship with the children. It is important for legislators and court professionals to understand that children do not need both parents equally. They need the safe parent more than the abusive one and their primary attachment figure more than their other parent. ..” “The Broken Court System: Is There Reason for Hope?” by Barry Goldstein: http://www.barrygoldstein.net/important-articles

 

From “Family Court Matters” : FCM posted an article on corruption and greed within the supervised visitation provider network, many of their comments also seem applicable to California Safe Child Coalition.. “Why, becomes the question, would an anti-domestic violence (“End Domestic Violence” indicates they want it to stop) be collaborating with the infamous Supervised Visitation Field, which is known to spring out of the father’s rights and welfare reform fountain?”

 

And,“Again, I have to ask, how could such a well-known (in the field) group go for so long absent any corporate existence? Not registered with the State of California to do business in California–but it sure looks like they are consistently billing and being paid to do business in California….” “Good Cause to Eliminate (Funding for): Access Visitation, Supervised Visitation, and Batterer’s Intervention, PERIOD!” http://familycourtmatters.wordpress.com/2013/11/29/good-cause-to-eliminate-funding-for-access-visitation-supervised-visitation-and-batterers-intervention-period/

From The Liz Library: “Supervised visitation cannot continue indefinitely, and controlling, violent, or child molesting parents aren’t going to change. So what is the point? ….

It’s a band-aid for 10 weeks, or 6 months, or whatever, and then the abusive parent will most likely go back to court, after behaving “safely” or “nicely” in the presence of supervisors, and get unsupervised visitation. The supervised visitation center will have made money, the parents will have lost money, the litigation will have remained open, the abusive parent will be even more angry and resentful, additional therapies and interventions will be recommended and tried (all as the abuse fades into the past and claimed irrelevancy), and overall, the entire situation will be even more miserable than it was before for the victims.” — The Liz Library, “Endless $tupidity: domestic violence victim advocacy for supervised visitation centers (Endless stupidity or professional self-interest–there’s no other choice.)” http://www.thelizlibrary.org/site-index/site-index-frame.html#soulhttp://www.thelizlibrary.org/supervised-visitation/supervised-visitation-stupidity.html

National Safe Child Coalition: Posted an article on August 12, 2103 about a man who killed his child during supervised visitation to spite his ex. NSCC followed with these thoughts, “They have dangerous people ordered into supervised visitation at the YMCA while protective parents who pose no threat are ordered into prison like rooms for supervised visitation with their children.”

KATHLEEN RUSSELL AND CJE’S MONEY TRAIL INVESTIGATED BY FAMILYLAWCOURTS.COM: WHAT TAX RETURNS REVEAL

Source: http://www.familylawcourts.com/non_profits.html

Family Law Courts is investigating “DV advocates who don’t want to see women empowered” and they claim most advocates are corrupt, and in the business to make a profit, not help victims of abuse. 

Family Law Courts has investigated a number of individuals and non-profits including Kathleen Russell of The Center for Judicial Excellence (CJE) aka “The Center”. Kathleen Russell is an unmarried woman with no children who is the co-founder and staff consultant at CJE. Why? Family Law Courts has pulled Russell’s tax records and raised allegations that CJE is just another money making organization within the family court system, similar to what protective mothers are fighting against.

Quote: (2008) “Tax records reveal in one year the Center for Judicial Excellence accepted grants and donations in the amount of $215,052.00 (Line “L”). Of that amount (Line 13) $187,000 went to outside sources. The source?

Page 4, Line 151. Kathleen Russell Consulting.”

Source 2008 Tax Returns Posted on Family Law: http://207.153.189.83/EINS/204892221/204892221_2008_054E013D.PDF

That’s means 86% of grants and donations to CJE went directly to Kathleen Russell Consulting. 

Source 2010 Tax Returns are posted on Family Law: Courts: http://207.153.189.83/EINS/204892221/204892221_2010_07496338.PDF

From 2006-2010, CJE took in $922,323 dollars in grants and contributions, if 86% were paid to Kathleen Russell Consulting that would earn her  $793,198 in 4 years. OR $198,299 dollars a year. With that large amount of money, you would hope to see a more substantial change in family court–not a solution that fosters a relationship between a child and an abuser, and throws the family back into the troubled family court system. 

EVEN CLAUDINE DOMBROWSKI ADMITS: IT’S AL ABOUT THE $$ MONEY $$

Is it so far-fetched that the domestic violence advocates and leaders would compromise their stated goals to protect women and children to make a profit?

One more screen shot to consider…

This was taken from Barry Goldstein’s wall, keep in mind Barry is a former attorney who was disbarred after mishandling money belonging to a non-profit organization. Here Barry is begging his supporters “to contact local dv groups, colleges, and other other organizations that could sponsor (PAY) a program for me to speak at.”

Like Kathleen, Barry works as a speaker and consultant. What is a consultant? Someone who can give advice or share ideas about family court, domestic violence and related issues without a law license; and make a profit from speaking, public engagements, writing books, etc.

Claudine Dombrowski responds with this interesting comment,”Yo gf I’m awake. Eyes wide open 20 yrs. I also know that in the communities the heart people not all enjoy this you use what you can get it in any way you can. Through anyone you can.

It’s your choice. Try to balance like the dv orgs do (there funding is 3/4 fr tagged), or push the truth the common sense. Or…you can keep preaching to the choir… Put it where it needs to be.”

 

Claudine Dombrowski: “Get it in any way you can”

Keep asking questions, and be open to uncovering the truth….

Maria Bauer Melinn Rewrites History: Inserts Herself into Suffrage Movement & More

“A mother can not stop fighting for the safety of her children, nor can a protective father or grandparent!!!!” – Maria Bauer Melinn

 

A History of the World According to Maria Bauer Melinn…

 

CHAPTER 1: Maria becomes QUEEN.

According to male admirer Babuhai Patel, “The best girl in the entire facebook is her highness Maria.”

 

Abdul Raoof Mughal:“You belong in Bollywood films..”

CHAPTER 2: Maria inserts herself into the Women’s Suffrage Movement, highjacks the name of a legitimate organization, the National Women’s Party, and then. uses it for her own selfish purposes. Maria compares herself to Susan B. Anthony and other notable women, inserting herself into the spotlight of women’s history.

Let’s be clear, Maria stole the National Women’s Party’s name, historical images, and written descriptions of its history and leaders then made this significant organization that has contributed to increasing the rights and equality of women, ALL ABOUT HERSELF!

 

CHAPTER 3: Maria compares herself to Anne Frank: http://thekcajapreview.blogspot.com/2013/12/maria-melinn-compared-herself-to-ann.html

 

Anne Frank was a teenager who was murdered in the Holocaust, perishing in a concentration camp with her sister—and most of her family. If Maria does not have respect for Anne’s memory, and how the Frank family has chosen to honor Anne’s life—then how can Maria be trusted to advocate for anyone else or protect her own children?

 

CHAPTER 4: March 2012, Maria becomes president of the American Mothers Political Party (AMPP), an organization created by fellow narcissists who strive to be the center of attention, attempting to alter reality if necessary.

Just two examples, Lorraine Tipton aka Mama Liberty compares herself to a gun toting Statute of Liberty.

Lorraine Tipton imagines herself to be a gun toting “Mama Liberty”

 

And Claudine Dombrowski has rewritten the Wizard of Oz to give herself a starring role in it.

 

Chapter… Do you really want another chapter? History repeats itself until we learn from its mistakes.

 

Look at the pattern of Maria’s actions; that proves she has a strong need to seek attention without any remorse for using people or hurting people in the process. She even goes so far to steal historical names and the identity of historical figures to feed her own ego. And yet so many people come to Maria, and the others like her for help—Claudine, Lorraine, AMPP, Abused Swan and Mothers of Lost Children (MOLC) etc.

 

What can be learned from this?

*If you have a history of abuse or trauma, you could be vulnerable to attracting other abusers into your life while missing the red flags. This does NOT mean that you are a bad person but that abuse has left its mark on you, and you must be more diligent in educating yourself or seeking support to protect yourself.

*Just because someone portrays themselves as an “advocate” does not make them one. And just because an advocate is a female does not mean she is a trustworthy person. Abusers can be male or female, come from all backgrounds and cultures, and are skilled at manipulation to hide who they really are. You have to look at actions and patterns of behavior to determine if a person can be trusted.

*For more tips on how to protect yourself, and what red flags to look for to detect abuse, here are some links that may be helpful:

 

Advocate Qualities and Choosing the Correct One for You: http://www.iidc.indiana.edu/?pageId=376

This link  above includes child disability advocacy for  schools, but there are some helpful tips that could apply to advocacy in general, including family court advocacy, such as:

How long has this person been involved in advocacy?

Does this person understand YOU, YOUR child and YOU and YOUR child’s needs?

Will this person be sensitive to the fact that YOU have the ultimate final decision making power?

Can this person be objective? What evidence is there of this fact?

Can this person maintain a professional demeanor?

Does this person seek win-win solutions?

Does this person understand his/her professional limits?

What references are available and what is the reputation of this advocate?

 

Narcissism on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissism

A 2012 popular book on power-hungry narcissists suggests that narcissists typically display most, and sometimes all, of the following traits:^[7]

• An obvious self-focus in interpersonal exchanges
• Problems in sustaining satisfying relationships
• A lack of psychological awareness (see insight in psychology and psychiatry, egosyntonic)
• Difficulty with empathy
• Problems distinguishing the self from others (see narcissism and boundaries)
• Hypersensitivity to any insults or imagined insults (see criticism and narcissists, narcissistic rage and narcissistic injury)
• Vulnerability to shame rather than guilt
• Haughty body language
• Flattery towards people who admire and affirm them (narcissistic supply)
• Detesting those who do not admire them (narcissistic abuse)
• Using other people without considering the cost of doing so
• Pretending to be more important than they really are
• Bragging (subtly but persistently) and exaggerating their achievements
• Claiming to be an “expert” at many things
• Inability to view the world from the perspective of other people
• Denial of remorse and gratitude

Maria Bauer Melinn: Advise for Moms in court: Benadryl!

Maria Bauer Melinn reveals her strategy for abused women dealing with traumatic family court procedures: Benadryl! Is Maria qualified to give medical or legal advise? Nope!

Read more on Maria’s latest exploits…

How Sick and Disabled is Maria Bauer Melinn??
Maria wants us to believe that she is so disabled, and debilitated with life-threatening heart problems that it is impossible for her to serve any time in jail–and this punishment for contempt may endanger her life. Maria has even posted pictures of herself online, showing that she is in a hospital with heart monitors taped to her chest, her face devoid of its usual flirtations. With the last of her failing strength, Maria lifts the cell phone and pushes a button.., snap! snap! A selfie reveals one last valiant stand against “injustice”.

And in a snap, everything can change– but look at this  screen shot, Maria is commenting to another mother who is pro se in a family court matter, offering help. Maria says that she is able to “call a DV shelter on Monday” before she goes to jail. Maria is acting as an advocate and willing to “talk about strategy”.

If Maria is strong enough and of sound mind so that she is able to advocate for other moms, and is able work with other domestic violence organizations in order to “help” another mom with a very difficult and time consuming family court situation… then her claims of being so sick to the point of death are highly suspect.

Maria Melinn Broke Back on Motorcyle http://abusiveadvocates.com/2013/09/23/maria-bauer-melinn-broke-back-motorcycle/

Maria’s Advice to Moms in Family Court: Take Benadryl!
This mom is pouring her heart out online, giving very sensitive and personal details about her family court situation, which are now made public due to her disclosures. Maria is encouraging this mom to keep talking, and to go public–with little regard for this mom’s safety or privacy, and the possible implications for revealing so much.

Maria’s advice to help this mom cope in family court: “Many Moms find Benadryl helps on court days..”

Possible side effects of Benadryl include: Drowsiness, Dizziness, Mood Swings, Blurred Vision, Confusion and Irregular or Fast Heartbeat. Allergic reactions to Benadryl can cause seizures, difficulty breathing, swelling of the face/tongue and severe dizziness.
http://www.webmd.com/drugs/drug-5680-Benadryl+Oral.aspx

What would happen if a mom actually took Maria’s advice and popped some Benadryl right before going into family court, especially a mom who is pro se or acting as her own attorney? Would it look good before the judge if the mom was falling asleep…if she had a sudden change in mood that affected her ability to represent herself…if her tongue swelled and she could not speak for herself in court or even breathe…..if she got dizzy or confused? Or what if the Mom had a drug interaction related to Benadryl and a medication she was already taking? How would the abuser to react to that? How would the Judge respond, the Guardian ad Litem or other court professionals?

ATW finds it alarming, and frankly irresponsible for Maria–who has NO MEDICAL TRAINING and is not a licensed medical provider– to suggest Benadryl to anyone, even worse a vulnerable mom desperate for help. Maria’s advice could potentially 1) endanger the health of a mom taking her advise and 2) have a severe and negative impact on her court case–and the relationship she has with her children if she appears to be impaired or drugged, or is unable to represent herself due to the effects of Benadryl.

Did Benadryl Contribute to Maria’s Heart Problems?
ATW can only speculate, until we have proof, but Maria’s suggestion to take Benadryl, makes you wonder if Maria is also taking Benadryl to cope with her clegal issues. One of the side effects of Benadryl is fast or irregular heartbeat, and once ingested Benadryl is almost impossible to trace.

From a report on Maria:”Domestic violence victim Maria Melinn, an ethnic Hebrew-American (genealogically verified), was subjected to these abuses, in violation of her ADA orders, right here in Allegan County, Michigan this month. She has been denied most of her heart and cholesterol medications by the Jail’s medical staff during the first 6 days of her 60-day unlawful detainment, as well as her physician-mandated mattress, wheelchair, heart monitor (via denial of the charging cord for the unit’s receiver), and physical therapy sessions for her back..As a direct result, Ms. Melinn has had 2 cardiac incidents after only 6 days under these conditions. She had a severe episode of chest pain, angina, and tachycardia on the 3rd day of her unlawful detainment, and another cardiac event on day 6. She was admitted into the progressive intensive care unit of the hospital that evening with severe chest pain and other cardiac symptoms. Her condition was able to be stabilized after nearly 24 hours of in-patient care.”
http://allegancountylegaldocs.wordpress.com/tag/maria-melinn/

Benadryl could pose a risk to Maria’s health.. so why would she advise it to someone else?

Maria Implicates Barry Goldstein
Maria goes on to offer her unprofessional and uneducated legal assistance to this mom. Keep in mind that Maria has no legal training, no law degree and a majority of her “advocacy” training was given by the disgraced American Mothers Political Party (AMPP), where Maria once was president. AMPP has been recently exposed for their criminal acts of stalking, harassment and defammation. Their leader, Claudine Dombrowski, is facing criminal charges and has a protective order filed against her (other evidence suggests that Claudine is a serial stalker with a long history of harassment towards others).

Maria implicates Barry Goldstein as being a partner in offering advocacy services for abused women in court, whether this is true or not cannot be validated–but that Maria would use his name so publicly, and so freely could only mean they share a close relationship–or that Maria wishes they had one.

Maria states, “I will talk with you about strategy etc. in the courtroom”
Maria then goes on to offer up the services of Barry Goldstein: “we will work on how to handle cross examination… I am sure Barry will also talk to you about strategy too.”
Barry Goldstein is a former attorney now working as a domestic violence advocate, speaker and author. He does not have a current law license and cannot legally give any legal advise.
Common sense says there is only two ways to look at Maria’s implication of Barry:
1) Maria is dropping Barry’s name to give herself credibility, and to bolster her image as an advocate. And Barry may not be involved or is not aware of her remarks.
2) Barry is actively working with Maria–and the organizations she represents.
Either way this kind of advice presents a real danger for any protective mom who may be fooled into believing that Maria is a qualified advocate, and especially a danger that this advice may be used in court and jeopardize a mom’s case, and her custody/visitation.

 

Mothers of Lost Children: Hang the Judge!

Mothers of Lost Children (MOLC), an advocacy group for abused women, has apparently decided the best approach to reforming the legal system is to take the law into their own hands!

Part of the MOLC quote states, “The judge must go…Hang the Judge!”

In Response To: The case of Judge Todd G. Baugh (Billings, Montana, Yellowstone County) who sentenced teacher Stacy Rambold to 30 days in jail for raping a 14 year old student, who later committed suicide. Judge Baugh said the victim was partly responsible for her rape.

A national outcry ensued, in response Judge Baugh offered a lame apology. Thousands signed a petition demanding Judge Baugh resign, others protested outside the courthouse. Judge Baugh then tried to “do over” the case by holding a hearing to determine if the sentence was legal, and possibly change it. However, the Montana Supreme Court blocked the do-over hearing, state it was “unlawful” and “We take no position on the legality of the imposed sentence and will address the parties’ arguments in that regard on appeal.”

Although ATW disagrees with the decision of Judge Baugh, we also disagree with imposing “justice” through force or violence (both verbal or physical).

Since MOLC promote themselves as an organization that is fighting abuse, they should be elevated to a higher standard of behavior because they are supposed to set an example for the rest of us, and demonstrate reform through peaceful action/advocacy. If violence is to become acceptable in the Mother’s Movement, that opens the door for more abusers to work in it–creating a risk for mothers and their children to be re-victimized. In light of that, we find this post appalling.

Our sympathies go out to the family and friends of the victim, Cherise Moralez.

Maria Bauer Melinn Broke Back on Motorcycle

BROKE BACK MOTORCYCLE

Starring Maria Bauer Melinn (as herself) & Deanna Tarrow Kloostra (as the politician who wet her pants)

Plot: Celebrity Victim Maria Bauer Melinn weaves a sad tale of having her back broken by her abusive ex, and demands special treatment…including a hot rod wheelchair.

Maria is embraced by the Mother’s Movement, who ignores the glaring evidence that her story doesn’t add up. Maria is paraded around Mothers of Lost Children, as a symbol of what is wrong with the courts. …Or has Maria become a symbol of the dysfunction within the Mother’s Movement, that abusive advocates are hiding in their ranks, claiming to be victims to gain attention and serve their own selfish agenda?

NEW photos deepen the controversy…is Maria a victim or a fraud? See for yourself…

SCENE 1: Mothers of Lost Children Vigil, Washington D.C.

On a shady street, a motorcycle zooms past, a group of women wearing white t-shirts lettered in black with “Mothers of Lost Children” form a small protest, waving an “Abused Swan” banner.

From a wheelchair, Maria holds one end of the sign, struggling beneath its weight; she poses for a picture, then another and another… groaning “My abuser broke my back”

SCENE 2: Secrets in the Closet

A closet door creaks open, an empty wheelchair is folded inside… Maria is out dancing, without it.

What about her broken back?
Maria’s story is meant to manipulate sympathy, the evidence tells a very different story…

Maria’s statement, taken by the police, states she has fair recollection of the events leading up to the alleged assault but “doesn’t remember much” after her ex allegedly “pushed her back into the apartment and knocked her down”. There is no evidence that Maria suffered an injury which would explain her conveinant memory loss, and inability to recall important details of an “assault” that she would use to catapault herself to fame. Witness statements from the night of the alleged incident refute Maria’s elaborate story—and she is said to have gone out dancing the night after the incident (with pictures to prove it). There is no evidence or medical reports from the night of the incident showing Maria suffered a broken back.

Also, the alleged incident took place in 1998 — Maria was not given a “prescription” for a wheelchair until 2012. That’s 14 years later! Is it a “coincidence” that her back injury resulted after a car accident?

Read the full story Michael’s Wish: http://michaelswish.com/blake-melinn-broke-my-back

SCENE 3: Shadowy Kitchen

A Bundt cake molds on a Formica countertop, a lone dust ball rolls across the stove… Mothers of Lost Children and Supporters are on a hunger strike “out of solidarity” with Maria. They have not eaten for days!!! Will she know if one of her “Supporters” sneaks just a tiny bite… stomach growls as a skeletal hand reaches for a cold leg of chicken…three days old and still finger lickin’ good, wowza!

SCENE 4: Sunny Day Allegan County Jail, Birds are Singing…

Maria is jailed for violating a court order, and puts on her best dramatic performance yet… she bats her eyes, pouts her lip, and states that Allegan County is racist against “Hebrews” and the jail is like a “concentration camp” in which “Hebrews” are discriminated against and even killed. It is not explained how these “neo Nazis” detected that Maria is a “Hebrew”, nor has any proof been offered of their alleged racism, and no proof there is some kind of genocidal conspiracy happening in Allegan County.

In her bizarre claim of racism, Maria states that the jail denied her of her wheelchair, and other medical treatment, because she is Hebrew. See here the prescription for Maria’s wheelchair, and her claims of being “tortured”.

The authors of this blog claim it is not written by Maria but the story clearly is hers, she clearly relayed this information, and elicited her perspective. No respectable journalist or blogger would publish this trash that lacks proof, lacks independent evidence and is clearly based on a need for retaliation. Not to mention this article is completely disrespectful to the memory of the Holocaust, and is exploitive to it’s victims—offensive on so many levels.

So how did poor Maria fare without her wheelchair? Is she withering away? Crawling on the floor in agony? Banging her food bowl on the steel cold bars, crying out for help??

SCENE 5: Motorcycle Repair Shop Somewhere in Michigan

By the end of August 2013, Maria has made a speedy recovery from her broken back, and has transformed into a Motorcycle Mama!

See how Maria bends, contorts, stoops and hugs bestie Deanna Kloostra without any apparent pain or sign that her “broken back” is bothering her…

Wonder if Maria will show up for the next MOLC Vigil on her Harley??

Or will the Mother’s Movement finally denounce Maria Bauer Melinn for her lies, and put the focus back where it should be—on our children?

The Gavel Slams Down on Cyberstalking Claudine Dombrowski…

From Bill Windsor of Lawless America:
“Bill Windsor of Lawless America puts Claudine Dombrowski and the American Mothers Political Party out of the stalking and threat business…

Claudine Dombrowski has been ordered to post nothing about me and remove all postings in regard to me…”

See FULL Statement at: http://claudinedombrowski.com/?p=176

How did Claudine Dombrowski get away with cyber stalking, harassment and online bullying for so long?

As tempting as it is to put all the blame on Claudine, she was enabled by sympathizers the Mother’s Movement (including many of those pictured below).

Many organizations in the Mother’s Movement not only looked the other way, and made excuses for Claudine as she continued to bully, harass and terrorize, but in some cases they promoted Claudine and her “Attack Mothers” ( AMPP). Anyone who tried to stand up to Claudine and her abusive ways were swiftly and viciously attacked, or forced into silence.

California Protective Parents Association (CPPA), Center for Judicial Excellence (CJE), Mothers of Lost Children (MOLC) and Safe Child Coalition work very closely together and might be run by the same small group of advocates-( see below; the same advocate who is a Chapter Leader for MOLC is also a Chapter Leader for Safe Child Coalition)

-all who have supported and actively promoted Claudine Dombrowski and AMPP. Their support and promotion continues even when all were aware of Claudine and AMPP’s abuse and cyber bullying towards Protective Mothers Alliance (PMA) and Lawless, and others. Also, it is very easy to go online and within seconds, see evidence in the search results that strongly suggest that Claudine has bullied, tormented, and made obscene postings about a number of people, and organizations. How could the Mother’s Movement continue to promote Claudine under these circumstances?

Claudine was a featured speaker at the Battered Mother’s Custody Conference (BMCC), speaking against abuse even as she was a perpetrator of abuse and other criminal acts.

Having her moment under the lights at the BMCC, was so important to Claudine that she canceled a scheduled visit with her daughter. Are these the actions of a mother who would do anything to see her child after a long estrangement?

Claudine appeared in short documentary films produced by California Protective Parents Association ( CPPA). CPPA also encouraged people to join AMPP

And Claudine has been supported by the Center for Judicial Excellence. Center for Judicial Excellence( CJE) and their leader Kathleen Russell Reportedly “Share Same Values” and “Work Very Closely Together” with AMPP:

Kyle Wigglesworth, an AMPP Attack Mother, struggles to defend AMPP on Barry Goldstein’s wall. Kyle has posted many false, misleading and defamatory comments on Barry’s wall against PMA, Bill Windsor and Lawless, and even attacking other protective moms.

These are just a few examples on how many professionals and organizations within the Mother’s Movement promoted Claudine and AMPP (the only exception ATW could find is Protective Mothers Alliance-PMA- International, and they became one of the primary targets of Claudine’s attacks).

That the Mother’s Movement would give refuge to an abuser like Claudine, and look the other way while she has caused real harm to countless victims should make you ask is any mother really safe? These are organizations that promote themselves to be domestic violence experts, advocates for women, and being such domestic violence experts they should know how to discern an abuser from a victim, an abuser from a traumatized woman, and then be able take action to protect and defend the victim. But if these organizations can’t do that within their own movement, how can they be expected and trusted to do that for protective moms in family court???

A.T.W. will continue to follow this story, and provide updates.. stay tuned

___________________________

AMPP has declared war on Bill Windsor and Lawless America, “Gloves are off pie boy!”

The lines have been drawn–you are either for AMPP or against them, “ANY group or mother worth their SALT had better think twice about sleeping with THIS enemy!”
This implies that if you are perceived to be against AMPP, consider yourself at war.

AMPP’s war has negatively affected the lives of battered women as they seek justice, and safety for their children by creating a culture of fear. No one is able to work together so corruption in family court continues. Change is a direct result of people being able to share ideas, and work together on a common goal. For real change to occur, people have to be able to work together in an environment that respects people’s opinions, talents and even differences–and does not tolerate abuse in any form.

Instead of working together, AMPP is using threats to control people, and control the movement as a whole. AMPP is causing real damage that is keeping battered women from making progress as they seek to protect their children and reform the courts.

This is what AMPP is accusing Bill Windsor of doing — hypocrisy!

Stay tuned as we continue to expose abusers, like AMPP, hiding within advocacy groups.
