Search Results: dysfunctional families

In the US, there seems to be so many dysfunctional families both behind closed doors and sometimes out in public. The family court systems are ridiculously biased towards fathers because the mothers are almost always guaranteed full child custody, even if the mother is a convicted felon (sex offender or murderer) and is abusive to her children.

The divorce rates are also high, which can sometimes do emotional harm to the children of divorced couples. Not to mention, there's this No-Fault Divorce law where people (women in particular), can just divorce from their spouse for absolutely no reason and can still take half of their spouse's assets, house, and full custody of their children. All of this are contributing to the rise of single motherhood in America.

All of these reasons are why I think both the family values and the family court system here in the US of A, are a complete joke.
