2024/05/26

I have been approached by someone from a documentary maker about my story. I am deciding whether to take part but I am often contacted by parents who want to get their stories out and there are pros and cons to doing so, hence this episode. If any listeners want me to pass on your details, DM or email me and I will. Links Episode 14 - https://audioboom.com/posts/8234043-stories-telling-your-story

45: Paternity: Test Issues for Mums, Dads and Children

The Fair Parenting Podcast ·

2024/05/12

In the light of a recent news story, I look at paternity testing and whether dads should be able to get a test outside of court proceedings. Some people might see this as an issue for men but it is wider. I discuss how testing has issues for mums, dads and children, including how paternity tests can improve health outcomes for children. Links I mention a recent video from a judge which went viral. Here is one of many links to it: https://twitter.com/VetFather_Bill/status/1758955451167723961

44: Fallible: Do We Expect Too Much From Experts?

The Fair Parenting Podcast ·

2024/04/28

This episode I look at the word ‘expert’, not so much to do with court as more widely in society. In many areas of life, experts affect us and sometimes spectacularly let us down. I look at some examples. We need experts but there are few people who really know what they are doing well enough to advise the way experts do and I think we need to be realistic about experts and the word itself. Perhaps it's time for a rebalancing of how experts are perceived across all fields and industries. I

2024/04/14

Occasionally I want to look back at past episodes for those new to the podcast. Today is one such episode. I wanted to revisit my discussion with Dr. Marni Hill Foderaro from episode 8. I hope you enjoy listening to it. It's one of my favourite episodes and as on publication date (14/4/2024) it is the 8th most popular episode. It was a wide-ranging and interesting discussion with Dr. Marni who was a fantastic guest. I enjoyed talking with her a lot. Here are the show notes from the episode: In

Episode 40 is a look back at episodes 31 to 39. Thanks to all the fantastic guests and listeners. The podcast would be nothing without you. As I often say, if someone wants to take over presenting this podcast let me know and I will be glad to go back behind the scenes. This episode is a compilation of episode clips rather than a ‘best of’ clips as that is individual choice. It is for regular listeners and also a taster for people new to the podcast.

The Fair Parenting Podcast ·

2024/02/18

In the family court many good and innocent parents and children suffer more and are treated worse than criminals found guilty of crimes. Considering in Britain all cases come under the umbrella of the Ministry of Justice I discuss this in today's episode.

2024/02/04

In today’s episode I want to revisit an idea we spoke about way back in episode 5, which was about parental separation in the movie Interstellar and other movies. It’s a great episode, thanks to Derick McDuff.It is a simple idea but one I have found useful over the years. The idea is using email, photos or other online ways to send messages to a child you are alienated from. Those messages may only be read years in the future, when your child has grown up, but they can help and I discuss

The Fair Parenting Podcast ·

2024/01/21

Many of us have seen incentives play out badly in family court, with solicitors milking Legal Aid, milking parents, parents making false allegations to get Legal Aid, prolonging cases and taking a case that could resolve amicably and blowing it out of the water to the detriment of parents and children. In this episode I discuss how incentives in other industries, and disruption to them, could improve things for parents and children if applied to family law. To illustrate this I make reference to

The Fair Parenting Podcast ·

2023/12/24

I love podcasts and I listen to many, two of which are Exponential Wisdom with @DanSullivanSC and @PeterDiamandis and Moonshots with @PeterDiamandis. I highly recommend listening to both. They cover many things, including AI, which is one of the hot topics of 2023. Those podcasts are not directly connected to our struggles for justice in family law but they are full of forward thinking developments and perspectives. They also talk about the idea of a moonshot. I believe our goal of a fair family

Christmas can be a difficult time whether you are a targeted parent or not. This episode first aired last Christmas and it highlights 12 ways to help you cope with #ParentalAlienation or #FamilyCourt We have episodes published and planned with experts in their fields to go into depth in specific areas but for now I wanted to give a quick list of many things you can try. In my experience nothing works all the time but many things work at different times and that's fine. As John Lennon said

2023/11/26

In this episode I discuss the current state of transcripts and bundles in the court system and how it hampers justice and reflects the prehistoric condition of family law. I give many ways things can be improved. We need a modern system not a Jurassic one because parents and children deserve better. I gave some other simple reform examples in episodes 2 and 32.

2023/11/12

Episode 2 had 6 simple low and no cost ideas for effective reform of family law. In this episode I wanted to give one more in answer to the question: should interviews with family law experts be recorded? The answer is 'Yes'. To not have them recorded represents a serious problem in the robustness and integrity of family law in England and Wales. To have recordings is good practise and protection for the truth, good parents and children.

This episode is for those new to the podcast. Every 10 episodes there is a clips episode. We've had 3 so far (episodes 10, 20 and 30). Listening to all 3 clips episodes would take a long time. The guests content is great but, as a shorter introduction episode for anyone just discovering the podcast, I wanted a bitesize clips episode so people can quickly hear parts from all the shows and choose which episodes they want to listen to in full.

The Fair Parenting Podcast ·

2023/10/01

Today I talk about a book that has helped me: 'Man’s Search For Meaning' by Viktor Frankl. The book applies equally to men and women and I can recommend it to anyone who is being abused or going through tough times. One of the ways of coping with the trauma that we get from abuse and alienation and the Family Court is by exploring stories of adversity. Examples of coping adversity don't get much more difficult than, of course, a concentration camp in World War Two, which is where Viktor
