Marketing to Survivors of Domestic Violence

It appears there is an entire industry that profits from the misery of women who have been in abusive relationships and are desperately seeking justice in the court system that is supposed to protect them and their children. For many of them, that justice will never come because they are unaware that with all the knowledge and understanding they are seeking for themselves, the system which holds the power and makes the decisions could give a flying fuck about them and the books they are reading.

What purpose does a book on domestic violence and the law serve if it is not a required reading for every family law judge?

What purpose does this book serve if the judges are not required to follow the laws that are referenced? If the judges are not held accountable for their actions?

What purpose does this book serve if a book with opposing ideas (ie parity in domestic violence) is being promoted and distributed to judges simulataneously? A book which confirms beliefs that they already have and thus subjects them to confirmation bias?

How many books must we come up with before mothers get their children back? Will we need a second edition?

Are these books any different from the ones that came out decades ago, when this same fight was still going on?

Who is advertising this book? And to whom? It seems that the mothers are the ones doing all the marketing for these books, in hopes that some attorney, or some social worker will take heed. Mothers are doing the work of promoting the books without getting a percentage of the sales. This scenario isn't even as good as Amway/Quixtar; there is no small kickback because the only reward that is worthy, is the return of her children.

I respect those who take the time--which may be years--of compiling, processing, and sorting information so that it is together and accessible. Your efforts ARE worthy and you do deserve to be monetarily rewarded--especially if you are a survivor yourself. We all need income to survive. However, this is not the end all be all and is not and will not garner the results that mothers need. Unfortunately, I think you already know this. You need to acknowledge that the problem is much greater than judges, attorneys, social workers, GALs, and CPS not knowing the law, or its applications, because as they say,

Ignorantia juris non excusat

And if we hold this to be true, then what we are dealing with is system that knows exactly what it is doing. A system which is profit motivated and supported by our tax dollars. A system which is inherently biased against women because those who run it do not have our best interest in mind.

Let us, advocates and those who the system has failed to protect and has destroyed our lives, remove the funding and boycott this system until it restores human rights to women and their children.
